Faith Changes Everything for Families!

: Bethany is a leading national, Christian organization, with unmatched expertise in family preservation programs in the United States. While well known as a premier adoption agency, we’ve also been at the forefront of the growing movement to improve long-term childhood outcomes by focusing on prevention and stabilization services.

Whether a child is alone at the border, experiencing trauma at home, or watching their parents battle things like substance use or poverty, we are dedicated to keeping children safe and loved within their families of origin whenever possible. Because that’s what’s best for children. And since the day we opened our doors in 1944, we’ve always fought for what is best for children.

: It’s our faith that motivates us. It’s at the core of all we do. And it holds us to the highest standards. Because we know we are serving as the hands and feet of Jesus, we bring our best every day to make the biggest difference for the ones who need us the most.

: Rooted in our faith and moved by compassion, we are guided by prayer in all that we do. Every step we take is intentional, grounded in data and focused on creating real, lasting outcomes for the communities we serve.

But numbers alone are not enough. We believe in the power of partnership, listening deeply and honoring the lived experiences of families. That’s why we don’t just design programs for families, we create them with families, ensuring their voices shape the solutions that impact their lives.

Together, we build a future rooted in dignity, hope, and shared strength.

: Decades of research have proven that the best place for a child is within their own family. And we know that children are safer when families are stronger. That is why family strengthening and empowerment is our highest priority.

When a child has been temporarily or permanently separated from their parents, we connect them with stable homes that show them the love and security only family can.

Children thrive when they have the support they need. That’s why we’re committed to expanding our support services for adoptive, birth, kinship, and foster families, ensuring families remain a powerful force for good in our communities.

: Bethany Christian Services provides child and family preservation services designed to protect children, empower youth, and strengthen families. This mission is lived out in services like foster care, adoption, refugee and immigrant services, and family strengthening.

: Giving monthly provides steady, Christlike support that keeps children safe and families together every month of the year
