We advocate for children who have suffered trauma by creating awareness of the crisis and educating potential foster families on how to get started.
We champion foster families. We empower them at each step of their foster journey by providing the training, resources and tools needed to care for a child who has suffered abuse and neglect.
Community is an essential part of walking this road. We build connection into everything we do, so you will always have people walking alongside you.
Are you ready to learn more? Attend one of our informational meetings to learn why children come into foster care, how a foster parent can help children heal, and the process for becoming licensed. Don’t worry, you’re not committing to foster a child. The meeting is about learning more alongside other people who are in the exact same place you are—the very beginning.
Learn MoreWe understand the daily challenges that foster families face in caring for children who have experienced trauma. Once a month, join fellow foster families and the Child Bridge team for trauma training, including simple and practical takeaways you can apply in your home to keep your family healthy and help a child heal.
Learn MoreFoster care can be hard, and there will be moments or days when you feel like you’re in over your head. That’s normal, and it’s why community is such an essential part of the process. We build connection into everything we do, leading small groups for facilitated, outcome-driven discussion. No matter where you are in your journey, we will connect you with the support you need. We also create space for you to share your experiences to help others, creating deeper relationships and a system of support.
Learn MoreThere are incredible people—just like you— who have been called to step into the hard and watch beauty unfold as they care for hurting kids. But we understand that in today’s busy world, it can be difficult to actually find them. Family Events are casual but intentional gatherings designed to help you meet other amazing souls who walk this same road you do.
