Get Involved
The ultimate goal of foster care is to reunite a child with his or her family. Until that moment comes, foster families provide a safe and nurturing home where a child is able to heal, grow, and thrive. CTXST prides itself in recruiting and training highly qualified families to make this happen.
Can You Make a Difference?
Ask yourself the following questions:
- Are you at least 21 (and married) or 25 (and single) years old?
- Are you in stable physical and mental health?
- Is your income sufficient to meet the basic needs of the household?
- Are you willing to attend training?
- Do you have the additional space in your home for a child to be placed?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, don’t wait! Join our Tribe today!
Foster families receive:
Educational Training
Scheduled training includes trauma-informed care, parenting strategies, behavioral interventions, and dealing with grief and loss.
Tribe Support
Tribe families receive birthday parties, outings and events, case management, and ongoing support from the Tribe.
Financial Assistance
The Tribe offers financial compensation and assists with predetermined expenses of having a child in placement.
Community Support
CenTex Service Tribe is committed to the children of our community and the wonderful people who come alongside us to support them. Community partners make the difference between families who just survive and families who fully thrive.
It takes 5-10 additional adults providing support and care for a foster or adoptive family to be successful.
Even if you do not feel called to foster, you can still come alongside by offering:
- Babysitting
- Meals
- Prayer
- Mentoring
- Clothing
- Respite Care
- Transportation
