The truth about foster care. During a crisis, a child needs a family to be with them, to listen to them, and to love them unconditionally. Right now, over 100,000 kids in the U.S. need a foster family to embody relentless love. It's not about you; it's about the child. Foster care will challenge you to be selfless, committed, andresilient.

THE WORLD CAN BE DIFFICULT AND UNJUST Today, 140 million kids don't have a permanent home. That's unacceptable. At Bethany, we witness what happens when people choose love. Not theoretical, unblemished love, but the real, messy,imperfect kind.
Love that empowers vulnerable kids and families everywhere. The children hurting at home, and the ones unprotected at a border. The orphans and vulnerable children who feel alone, and the refugees living in a world of uncertainty. Everyone deserves to be loved. Together, we can change the world through family.FIND
