How to get involved!

  • The Fostering Collective exists to recruit and shepherd Christ-centered families LIKE YOU to help children in foster care.
  • Right now, along with churches, organizations, and agencies, we are challenged to Be The Light for a child in foster care.  Learn more about all the ways you can Be The Light.

About foster care in East Texas

  • There are more than 1,200 children in foster care in just the East Texas area
  • There are fewer than 600 foster families
  • We know many children in our community are not receiving the love they need
  • If 10% of churches in each county will get involved in foster care, then our community can provide more than enough:
    • Foster and kinship families
    • Adoptive families for every child waiting for adoption
    • Help for biological families trying to stabilize and reunify
    • Wrap-around support from the church for foster, kinship, adoptive and biological families
