November is National Adoption Month! 🌟 This month, we celebrate the power of adoption and our commitment to supporting families on their journeys. Recently, a local church helped preserve an adoptive placement by responding to a request for a baby monitor camera. This is essential for a child who was hospitalized due to stomach issues and needs a feeding tube. The monitor will help ensure his medical needs are met at night. Thanks to the members at Wyatt Park Christian Church, they provided the support this loving family needed. 🤝✨ Every connection strengthens the care around vulnerable children. Through Care-Sharing, we turn compassion into action — simply and effectively. Let’s keep working together to change lives and create lasting impacts for children in need. 💛

Last week, we wrapped up an incredible quarterly Area Director Meeting! Each morning began with prayer, setting a heartfelt tone for days filled with laughter, tears, and learning. We broke into teams to build relationships, share updates, and learn from one another, diving deep into our church ecosystem processes. So grateful for this family of leaders and the mission we share! #CarePortal #FaithInAction #StrongerTogether

Recently, a church stepped up to purchase an air conditioning unit for a family in urgent need, four young boys and a baby girl who were without cooling and in the heat.

This collaboration is a testament to the power of working together to address critical needs and improve lives. This story is an example of how CarePortal empowers churches to combine resources and efforts, ultimately providing effective solutions and fostering a stronger, more supportive community.

50% of foster kids are in 5% of U.S. counties. While children of all races are affected by the foster care system, Black children are disproportionately represented and face significant disparities in treatment and outcomes. These children are at a higher risk for negative outcomes later in life due to systemic issues and societal factors. Our Empower Every Community initiative focuses on addressing these critical issues by empowering local churches to take meaningful action. Churches, deeply embedded in their communities and trusted by their members, are uniquely positioned to help reverse racial disproportionality and improve outcomes for all families. Through research, we’ve identified 2,009 “Crux Codes”—specific zip codes where local churches can have a transformative impact. By leveraging the trust and relationships these churches have, we aim to reduce the number of children entering foster care and strengthen families through community-based Care-Sharing. Together, we can address the disparities in the child welfare system and create a more equitable and supportive environment for vulnerable children and families. https://lnkd.in/gjs9CG_7
