Our Children:
These are difficult times for families and youth. The demands, stress and pressures
of today’s culture sometimes drive many parents and children into making tragic
mistakes. Some adolescents may succumb to a life of crime, falling victim to drugs,
immorality and even homelessness. Regrettably, Colorado has experienced a tidal
wave of broken lives and kids in need of safe, secure and well-managed homes.
FOSTER FAMILIES BRING THE GIFT OF HOPE TO A DESPAIRING CHILD AND FAMILY
Believe it or not, these desperate situations are not hopeless situations. You can
provide hope in a child’s chaotic world.
Family Foster Care provides a stable foundation for treatment and growth, offering
structure and guidance when it's needed most. But more importantly, the moral and
spiritual support provided by a stable foster family helps children cope with and
work through life’s hurdles.
FOR THE ABUSED AND NEGLECTED, HEALING CAN ONLY HAPPEN WHEN A CHILD FEELS: SAFE,
SUPPORTED and SECURE, then the child has THE HOPE OF A POSITIVE FUTURE
True stewardship pertains to the "care-taking" of everything and anything God has
given us. This includes "our" homes and His children.
As a Lost and Found Foster Family, you will be entrusted with uncovering the
hidden talents and gifts of our foster children. They have survived traumas and
tragedies that would overcome most people.
When you open up your home to a troubled child or youth, you are offering a safe
place for that child to grow and heal.
By holding onto the positive hope provided in a foster family environment, a wounded
child can increase the skills for a better future!
As a valuable component of our Therapeutic Team, foster families help develop a
comprehensive outlook on treatment issues and the progress of a child in placement.
Foster families also enrich any and all counseling the child receives with spiritual
support and involvement in a local faith community.
WE NEED YOUR HELP!
We are looking for families willing to "parent" at-risk children in an environment
that will help them thrive and grow emotionally, behaviorally, morally, and
spiritually. This necessitates a strong, vital commitment to nurturing and consistent
guidance for a child. Investing in a needy child’s emotional health and spiritual
well being is vital to the ministry of Family Foster Care.
MESSAGE FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR:
As a fellow minister and brother in Christ, I encourage you to become a foster
parent for this organization with all my heart. Our agency will promise our
support, clinical and professional supervision, and most of allthe Love
Of Christ.
In today’s world, times are hard for children and parents. The strength and stability
of a home environment managed under Christian values is priceless. The struggle is
genuine and hopefully you’ll hear His voice in this plea.
With Respect,
Harl Hargett,
Executive Director
