He has 34 years of experience and has worked for CHCS since 1995. He knew from an early age that he wanted to help children. He began his career as a Foster Home Licensing worker at DHHS and then transferred to CHCS at the Foster Home Developer in Aroostook County. Peter\u2019s role models are his parents as they are always helping people in need. When asked about who Peter\u2019s hero is, he says: My hero? Well, all foster parents are my heroes! They make a difference in children despite the sometimes overwhelming challenges, they face on a daily basis. It is not just about caring for children, but working with the foster care system, the legal system, the school system, the mental health system and the medical system. They are simply amazing to me that they would do all this for children who need so much help. I\u2019m in awe at their heart, determination, and dedication to children. It is an honor to work with such great people! I only wish we had more heroes like them!<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"staff-member\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"photo\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"bio\">\n                <h2>Angie Dyer<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t<p>Angie works in the Northern Region of CHCS in our Houlton &amp; Lincoln offices. Angie has 10 years of work experience. Angie is motivated to work in foster care to help others feel better and find their way to happiness. Angie grew up in a poor, rural area and saw many kids hurting. She knew she wanted to help children and families heal during struggle \u2013 each child has their own story and each family has their own challenges. Seeing the little successes in children and families such as children being able to express their feelings in works, use a new calming strategy, and overcoming emotional struggles are moments Angie loves to celebrate. Angie\u2019s heroes are her family. Angie met two amazing foster parents who over their 24 years helped over 100 children. Their love, caring, and calm ways helped so many children and inspired Angie. Every child in their home was part of their family, and they treated each one with love and acceptance. Even through the years, the two foster parents stayed connected to each child by supporting them through successes and struggles throughout their life.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":40,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-119","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 -
