Jillana Goble has been a foster mom, biological mom, and adoptive mom—in that order—since 2003. Five children ranging from pre-teen to young adult call her Mom. She writes what she's continually learning on the suspension bridge between hope and reality. Jillana holds a masters degree in Teaching ESL. She is a sought after speaker on various topics around foster care, government/community partnership, adoption, special needs, grief, and hope. She continues to mentor and walk alongside countless foster parents navigating this journey. Jillana is a connector and a collaborator who has walked an unlikely path in creating an unprecedented relationship with the children who have walked through her front door, their biological families, and with the Oregon Department of Human Services Child Welfare. She founded an initiative that became the catalyst for Every Child Oregon, a robust engagement model bridging the community and foster care. When not engaging with her family, Jillana enjoys drinking coffee with friends—half filled with cream—at neighborhood coffee shops. Her favorite things include leaning in to engage others’ real deal stories, walking around the city with a friend, and reading in the tub way too late at night.
