This resolution recognizes March 26, 2025, as Upbring Advocacy Day, honoring a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting youth and families in Texas through foster care and adoption. Upbring, which has roots in a mid-19th century Lutheran service organization, has impacted over 100,000 youth and currently serves approximately 14,000 young Texans annually across more than 80 locations in the state. The organization provides critical services including foster care placement, connecting vulnerable children with supportive families, operating residential programs for trauma survivors, and advocating for youth who have experienced abuse, neglect, and exploitation. The resolution commends Upbring for its compassionate work in providing hope and healing to children, and formally acknowledges the organization's significant contributions to Texas communities by officially designating a day in its honor and extending best wishes for its continued success.
