Our team provides stability and support to these children, their biological families seeking to reunify, and their foster parents who have opened their homes. If placement in a foster family isn’t possible, we provide children with a group home in which our caring staff go out of their way to make them feel at home and care for them as if they were their own.

Funding for our services are provided in part by Families First Network and generous financial support from our community, churches, private donors, estates, trusts and other sources.
