Critical support for families in crisis
Protecting people around the world
When a family is in crisis, kids can become vulnerable to neglect and abuse. No family should experience this. That’s why we offer protective services to vulnerable children and families in the United States and around the world.
Helping those who need it most
In the United States
When parents are going through a crisis, you can temporarily welcome their children into your home through the Safe Families for Children ministry - allowing the parents to take essential steps toward stability. While the child's stay with you is short, your impact lasts forever.
Around the world
Refugee children are particularly susceptible to abuse and exploitation including trafficking, forced labor, physical violence, and abandonment. That’s why we offer refugee programs—like trauma-focused mental health support and foster parent recruitment, as well as access to basic needs—in several locations around the world.
