Children Belong In Family.

It’s God’s design, and it’s the best design. We believe that even when a child can not be with their biological family, whether temporarily or permanently, they still need and deserve a family.

We also believe that it is the local church’s biblical responsibility to care for the widow and the orphan, not the government’s. Those ideals have led us to incorporate foster care into our model of caring for vulnerable children.

What We do, more specifically

• Educate the community on the long-term, negative effects of institutionalization and the healthier alternative of foster care

• Recruit interested foster families

• Provide 20 hours of training to foster families

• Conduct home-study evaluations and walks through the application process with each of our families

• Work with the Guatemalan government to officially accredit families

• Work with child protective services to place and match kids with foster families

• Provide psychological support and accountability to both the child and the family post-placement

• Work towards a permanent solution for the child (ie; reunification or adoption)
