An afternoon of pinball, laughter, and friendly competition may seem like a simple outing, but moments like these can have a lasting impact on a child.

The Jackson family recently spent time with their Treatment Foster Care kids at Atomic Pinball, creating memories, building connections, and sharing the kind of everyday experiences that help children feel safe, supported, and valued.

At Marygrove, Treatment Foster Care parents like the Jacksons provide more than a place to stay. They provide stability, encouragement, and opportunities for children to simply enjoy being kids.

Little moments like this become big moments in the lives of children in need.

May is both Foster Care Month and Mental Health Awareness Month, and we see every day how deeply connected those two realities can be.

Children who have experienced trauma need more than shelter. They need stability, support, compassion, and caring adults who help them heal and grow.

Through Treatment Foster Care, counseling, and supportive services, Marygrove works to help children and families build brighter futures filled with hope and belonging.

This month, we honor the strength of children in care, the dedication of foster families, and the importance of mental health support for every child.

Prom season is about more than dresses, ties, and photos.

For children in foster care, moments like these can mean feeling celebrated, included, and truly part of a family.

The Jackson family recently helped their Treatment Foster Care kids get ready for prom, creating memories that will last far beyond one special night. Every child deserves the chance to experience milestones like these surrounded by encouragement, stability, and love.

Little moments like this become big moments in the lives of children in need.

We wrapped up our final Lunch Club with an incredible turnout and so much gratitude.

For decades, this gathering, formerly known as First Friday, has brought together a dedicated group of supporters, some who have been with us since the very beginning 40 years ago. Their commitment to our children and families has made a lasting impact.

While this chapter comes to a close, we are deeply grateful for the community, consistency, and care that have defined Lunch Club for generations, and we look forward to finding new ways to remain connected with our community in the future.

Thank you to all who have been part of this special legacy.

Easter morning at the Jackson family’s home was filled with joy, laughter, and a few very excited little hands reaching for Easter baskets.

Through Marygrove’s Treatment Foster Care program, the Jacksons have opened their home to children who need stability, care, and a place to belong. Moments like these may seem small, but they create lasting memories and a sense of love that every child deserves.

Little moments like this become big moments in the lives of children in need.

Thank you to the Florissant Police Dept for partnering with us to help prevent child abuse during National Child Abuse & Neglect Prevention Month!

We would like to extend a sincere thank you to Chelse Walker and our friends at Good Shepherd Children & Family Services and Marygrove for their thoughtful donation to our officers.

April is recognized as National Child Abuse & Neglect Awareness Month, and efforts like these highlight the importance of protecting and supporting the most vulnerable members of our community.

We are grateful for the support and look forward to continuing this strong relationship while making a positive impact in our community.
