There are so many incredible resources out there for foster parents, adoptive families, and parents going through the difficult journey of reunification with their children. The below resources are available to help you with your journey.
Fostering Together’s goal is to see all foster families and the children they foster receive extended family-style support. To accomplish this, they facilitate the development of a Community of Care for every foster family who is approved with a Fostering Together partner organization. This is a ministry developed and supported by Northpoint Church in Alpharetta, GA. SAFFT is proud to be partnered in their efforts to accomplish their mission.
