Your Church can be a Difference Maker
Recruit
Your church partners with us to recruit safe, loving families.
Host a Foster Care Ministry Lunch
Pick a date that works for your church - you provide lunch, we share WHAT the needs are and HOW your congregation can get involved. Lunch doesn’t work? No problem, let us know what will!
Equip
We provide assessment, training, and support throughout the certification process.
Host a Foster Parent Info Meeting
Open your doors to host a Foster Parent Info Meeting. You provide the space, Crossroads NOLA leads the meeting, introducing potential foster families to the certification process and the support services we provide. Church Partners help us make Foster Parent Info Meetings accessible to families throughout the metro area.
Support
We support foster families as they care for kids in their home.
Host a Respite Event or Support Group
You can Join us in supporting foster families by hosting a Respite Event at your church. You plan a fun morning or afternoon for kids, recruit volunteers from your church, and we promote the event to foster families! Help us make support groups available by providing space and child care.
Add a Family
There’s no financial requirement to become a church partner. After all, her people are the most valuable resource a church can mobilize on behalf of vulnerable children and families.
However, if your church would like to financially partner in this life-changing work, you can commit to cover the cost of recruiting, developing, and supporting a new foster family ($3000) or decide on an amount that works with your church’s vision and budget.
