Fostering Hope champions
the cause of foster children,
taking them from abuse and
neglect to love and nurture
by supporting the foster
family. |
OUR MISSION
Enabling faith communities to reach out to foster parents to:
• Assist
• Support
• Affirm them in their ministry
WHY FOSTER PARENTS
• They are the “safe harbor” for neglected and/or abused children who must be
separated from their biological parents.
• They are the “last hope” - the only remaining “safe harbor” - for a significant
percentage of the children who enter the “system” and are unable to return
home or be adopted - the “last barrier” against abandonment.
OUR PURPOSE
To help foster parents persist in the daunting task of:
• Protecting and loving
• Healing and nurturing children who have suffered from neglect, abuse and
chaotic circumstances
OUR GOALS
• To help foster families do even more for their foster children.
• To reduce foster parent “burnout” and help them to sustain.
• To make it easier for others to become foster parents.
OUR DREAM
• That every foster family will have the active assistance and support of a
dedicated faith community. |
