Bethany in Philadelphia

If you are an adoptive parent, adoptee, birthparent, or have legal custodianship or a formal kinship agreement, our staff is here to provide support through our post-adoption services. Working with SWAN, our services may be available at no cost for children 18 and under.

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.

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.

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.

As a 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.

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.

Children around the world flee their homes due to war, violence, natural disasters, or persecution.  These unaccompanied children seek refuge and a safe, comforting place to heal.

Refugee foster families step up to provide a home for unaccompanied minors who have often been separated from their families for years.

Children who have experienced trauma deserve support. The ADOPTS program helps address traumatic events for children—before and after adoption—and equips them with coping skills they and their families need to thrive.
