Jolene Thorne
Mother to 8 children both adoptive and biological, encouraging, empathetic, purpose driven
Likes: Days on the beach, Family vacations, Homemade meals, Disney
Dislikes: I deeply dislike when children are treated unfairly, neglected or unheard. Frogs, driving over bridges
Jolene is a family orientated person who has devoted her life to better the lives of children. As an adoptive parent and advocate for families, she has dedicated her work to supporting mothers and children. She has worked in preschool both as a teacher and a director for over 15 years. Then went on to work for a Nationally Accredited home visitation program that supports and educates families for the past 12 years as both a supervisor and family support worker. Her personal journey through adoption inspired her to become deeply interested in ways to support the foster care system, where she strives to provide stability, compassion, and encouragement to children navigating uncertain circumstances. Jolene is grateful and excited to be joining New Jersey Angels where she hopes to continue to make a difference in the lives of children one child at a time!
