Presentation transcript:

Palm Beach County foster children need homes 1,614 children are​ under DCF supervision in PBC 73 children were placed in out-of-home care in February alone Increasing the total to 1,088 young lives being displaced by abuse or neglect  

Children come into foster care because their parents are not able to take care of them.

With a caring foster home, strong advocate, consistent mentor and community support, these children thrive.

Without those elements, they fail and the cycle repeats.

If every church in Palm Beach County were to foster two children, we could meet the need. 

Why be a foster parent? It’s an opportunity to infuse Christian values in children and show them what real love looks like.
