GETHSEMANE FOSTER INITIATIVE

Every child in West Texas deserves a safe home that is equipped to create stability and hope.

Every child in West Texas deserves a safe home that is equipped to create stability and hope.

We are a committed coalition working to recruit, educate, and retain foster and kinship communities.

Recruit

To solve the existing foster care crisis in our region we will connect with local community and faith based organizations to recruit potential foster families.

Educate

Gethsemane will map the journey a child takes through foster care in our region. We will showcase and connect foster families to the incredible non-profits in West Texas.

Retain

Foster Care without community leads to burnout. We will create connection points through social media, date nights for foster parents, and community groups.

Stay Informed

“We do not need to know the beginning of a child’s story to change the ending.”
