Every child deserves a safe, loving home where they can be
loved unconditionally and receive the support they need to succeed.
– Merry Beth Sheets, Hephzibah Executive Director
Not every child is born into a safe, secure and loving home. Children are placed in foster care when their parents or guardians cannot ensure their child’s well-being or they may be abused or neglected. These young people need stable, nurturing foster homes until they can safely reunite with their families or placed with a new “forever” family through an adoption.
Have you ever considered becoming a foster parent? You’re invited to think about it.
“It brings us great joy to watch their pain go away, listen to their dreams and see them begin to believe in a better future,” says one Hephzibah foster parent.
If you are ready to open your home and heart to a foster child or are thinking about it, Hephzibah is here to support you every step of the way.
To learn more, participate in our March 8 Foster Parenting Info Session set for 6-7 p.m. via Zoom.
We will discuss the process and training involved in becoming a foster parent, bust myth about foster parenting and answer all your questions.
