Meet Cindy and Rod

Cindy became a foster parent more than 28 years ago, in 1997. Between them, Cindy and Rod have 12 adult biological children, four adopted children and 24 grandchildren, so the family stays busy. Cindy has provided a safe and nurturing environment for around 60 kids, many of whom returned to their biological families and many of whom have been welcomed into the Troyers’ big family. They have three biological daughters who are deaf and are fluent in American Sign Language, which supported their efforts when fostering a deaf teen.
