Also, some great tips on how to start a Nonprofit and how long it really takes to fully launch a business and start paying yourself. My guest Ali Caliendo is a tireless advocate for children and families, focusing on kinship, foster and adoptive families. She launched, funded and currently serves as the Executive Director of Foster Kinship, a non-profit organization devoted to the support of kinship families.  I hope you learn SO much from this episode, I know I did! --- Questions Asked in This Episode: 1. Brief background about you and your business 2. What is Kinship Care? - How did it come about that you were going to start the non profit 3. Why you shouldn't wait to build your business 4. The ups and downs of fostering and adoption 5. How do you balance work and family life? 6. Advice you'd give to parents that adopt or foster a child. -- BIO:   Ali is a tireless advocate for children and families, focusing on kinship, foster and adoptive families.
