Foster Care and Adoption
Burke County, NC
Foster or Adopt
Building a Strong Family
It takes love and courage to consider fostering or adoption. By choosing to foster or adopt, you give the gift of love, a family, and wonderful opportunities. Every child has the potential to thrive. Every child deserves a place to call home. Every child deserves to feel loved and wanted. The reward of making a difference in the life of a child is without measure. Children who come into care are in unsafe living conditions. They need stability, acceptance, and love. They need families to provide an example of healthy, happy homes. Only then will we be able to break the cycle of abuse that so many of these children have been faced with. Our goal is to find individuals that are willing to open up your home and heart to a child that so desperately needs a chance.
