Thornwell Spotlight: Joseph Murrey Shares His Family’s Story with Show Hope

We are thrilled to share a touching video featuring Joseph Murrey, Thornwell’s very own Senior Advancement Officer, and his family! Joseph, his wife Katie, and their daughters, Arabella and Liana were recently highlighted by Show Hope, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting families through adoption aid and advocacy.
In the video, Joseph and Katie talk about the intentional investments they’re making in their daughters’ lives to ensure they have a bright future. Their story beautifully illustrates the importance of nurturing love, stability, and hope within a family.
Show Hope plays an instrumental role in promoting Trust-Based Relational Intervention® (TBRI®), a trauma-informed approach to caring for children that focuses on meeting their relational and developmental needs. Each year, Thornwell partners with Show Hope to train our staff, foster parents, and community in these critical skills, equipping them to provide the highest level of care for children and families. This collaboration empowers us to better support the children we serve as they heal and grow.
At Thornwell, we are honored to have Joseph as part of our team, working tirelessly to extend hope and healing to children and families. His personal commitment to making a difference aligns with the heart of Thornwell’s mission: to empower every child to thrive.
