19. Balancing Reality & Hope in Foster Care and Adoption with Jillana Goble

ReStoried

If you were part of the Mobilize Ohio experience last year, get ready for a familiar face! We're thrilled to welcome back the dynamic Jillana Goble – an advocate, author, and all-around powerhouse who left a lasting impression as a Mobilize Ohio speaker.

Jillana is a mother to five remarkable children who have significantly influenced and molded her. She is affectionately called "Mom" by each one of them. Alongside her husband, they have redefined the conventional image of a traditional family, weaving children and their families from challenging circumstances into their close-knit circle. Some become part of the family briefly, while others find a lasting place for a lifetime.

Recognizing parenting as sacred work, she profoundly respects every family responsible for loving and nurturing children from difficult backgrounds through foster care. In her heart, no one is overlooked, and her sincerest aspiration is to provide encouragement, inspiration, and unwavering support to all those navigating the unique journey of caring for and loving children from hard places.
