...Foster Care...

 

A Commitment of Love

Foster Care arranges substitute family care for children and youth needing temporary placement outside of their home.

The Texas Baptist Home is licensed by the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services (TDFPS) as a Child Placing Agency. It provides both basic and therapeutic foster care for boys and girls

 

We contract for services for levels of care, Basic, Moderate and Specialized, with TDFPS and Juvenile Probation. Private placements are considered on a limited basis.

 

The Texas Baptist Home Foster Care Program is funded by the Baptist Missionary Association of Texas, The Texas Department of Family and Protective Services, churches, businesses, and other loving individuals.

We must open our eyes to the hundreds of children, who need and deserve a loving home.
