Bethany in Grand Rapids
Supporting kids and families in our community
Pregnancy Support
We help thousands of expectant parents every year—of all
ages and backgrounds—and empower them to make a plan. Only they can make the
decision, but they don’t have to make it alone.
Infant Adoption in the U.S.
When an expectant parent decides to pursue adoption, we
offer support as they seek adoptive parents for their child.
Foster Care
For foster families around the world opening their hearts
and homes to children, we seek to provide ongoing support—every heartwarming
and heartbreaking step of the way.
Healing Refugee Torture and Trauma
Our primary goal through our Center for Refugee Healing Torture and
Trauma is to empower you to regain the physical, psychological, and social
wholeness you deserve.
Foster Care Adoption in the U.S.
Imagine growing up without the stability of a permanent
family. Unfortunately, that’s the reality for many children. That's why we do everything possible to ensure they have a stable, nurturing family.
Transitional Living Center for Refugee Youth
Our Transitional Living Center is a specialized residential
program committed to helping refugee youth adjust to their new culture and
achieve independence.

Sometimes you need someone to talk with you through life’s challenges—especially through the ongoing and ever-changing pandemic. We’re here for you when you do. Bethany’s Christian counselors are clinically certified and have a proven track record in their area of expertise.
Transitional Foster Care
As a transitional foster parent, you’ll provide a safe and loving temporary home for unaccompanied children seeking asylum in the U.S., until they can be reunited with a family member.
Residential Treatment Program
Young men who are sex offenders or who have demonstrated
sexually aggressive or inappropriate behaviors are granted a safe and
constructive home environment in our residential treatment program.
Safe Families for Children
When parents are going through a temporary crisis, we find
families to care for their children. This allows parents to take essential
steps toward stability.
Community Engagement and Volunteer Services
It’s not about how much time you put in, but the impact you can make with your skills and passions. Explore our volunteer opportunities and contact your local branch to find the best fit for you.
