Why get involved with foster care
Last year there were over 6,000 children served by the foster care system in Arkansas, with only 1,478 approved foster homes (as of January 2025). Together we can make sure there is more than enough support and safe, loving homes for kids in our community!

Hear from inside foster care homes in Arkansas
“I thought I would foster children to have a positive impact on their lives, but I did not expect the profound, positive impact they would have on mine. So grateful!”
“At first, I was worried about how my biological kids would handle fostering, but they have big hearts and want to see other children cared for, too! It’s so beautiful to watch children show up for each other.”
“As a single parent, the training and support I received during my first year of fostering has been amazing. It brings me so much joy to offer a loving, stable home for kids while their parents are getting the support they need.”
