Home assessments help ensure a safe environment for children and are an important part of the foster care licensing process.

At times, preparing for an assessment can feel overwhelming, but some parts of the process are a bit more straightforward than people expect. 🚰 Learn more at chsnc.org/foster

At just 24 years old, McKenzie became a licensed single foster parent, following what she describes as God's plan for her life.

Since opening her home, she has welcomed three placements and expanded her family through adoption.

Her journey is a reminder that foster parents come from many different backgrounds and stages of life. What matters most is a willingness to provide children with love, stability, and support.

Some families begin with a phone call.

For Diane Luber, it was the call she'd been waiting for: "We have a baby boy for you."

After years of trying to start a family, Diane turned to adoption. Through CHS, she welcomed her first son, Brennan. A few years later, after relocating to Arizona, she adopted her second son, Malcolm.

Looking back, Diane describes both of her sons as "a gift."

The experience left a lasting impact, inspiring Diane to remain connected to CHS long after her own adoption journey. Today, she has supported our mission for more than 20 years, including over a decade as a recurring donor. Read Diane's story: https://vist.ly/5hn8d

A backpack filled with supplies is important and so is the opportunity to connect with others along the way. 🎒

At a recent Back to School Bash, children in care picked out backpacks filled with school supplies while families enjoyed pizza, treats, and time together.

Events like these help build community, strengthen connections, and support families as a new school year begins.

We hope everyone has a wonderful school year!

He wants a family that is accepting, loving, and supportive. He'd love to have siblings and hopes to find people who will encourage him, give him time to build trust, and appreciate him for who he is. Have you considered adoption? https://vist.ly/5h3si

"We don't know why some of those behaviors exist. We're just doing our best to address each situation."

Foster parents don't always have the full picture of a child's past experiences. As they build trust and connection, they're also learning how to support children whose stories may include experiences they will never fully know or understand.
