FOR THE SAFETY OF THE CHILD
When children can't live safely at home and no appropriate non-custodial parent, relative, for close family friend is willing and able to care for them, the court can give temporary legal possession to CPS. CPS temporarily places these children in foster care. Foster care is meant to be temporary until a permanent living arrangement is found. However, it can become permanent - usually when a foster parent adopts or accepts permanent managing conservatorship of a child.
FOSTER PARENTS
Have you ever thought about opening your heart and your home to a foster child? Each week, children in Texas are in need of a safe and loving home. Amazing Grace Child and Family Services is a non-profit, agency founded on a strong commitment to providing the best services to children and families. Our Mission is to follow the example of Christ by embracing all God's children ... one child, one family at a time. Foster parents shape lives and in the process experience both the challenges and rewards that come with the task.
PRAYER
What we do first, what we do when we can do no more and what we do during the process is pray.
Matthew 25:40
New International Version (NIV)
40 “The King will reply,
‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’
TRAINING
As a foster parent, you will receive training and payment based on the child’s needs. You can meet and get to know other foster parents, and agency staff will give
you support.
The need for foster
families is urgent.
