Foster Village is here for families every step of the way. We achieve this by providing caregivers with necessities and resources so they can focus on helping the children in their care thrive.

Children need more than a system; they need a village.
In the Dallas-Ft. Worth area, there are over 2,000 children living in the foster care system. At Foster Village DFW, we believe it's the job of our community to come together to become a village of support for these children and their caregivers. We strive to bridge the gap between children living in foster care, kinship care, and being reunified with their family and those in the community who want to help. Our goal is to meet the practical needs and provide support beyond the system.
They shouldn't have to do this alone.
As a community, we can help these children, foster families, kinship families, and/or biological families by creating a village of support during their time of crisis. Everyone can do something, however big or small. They're all our children and every one of us is needed.
It takes a village.
Meeting needs. Bringing dignity to the system.
Together, we can make sure foster families and children have their basic needs met, connect foster families to resources and to each other and advocate for change in the system, creating a better future for our community, our children and the caregivers who raise them.
Our goal is to create opportunities for foster families – both the children and the parents – to connect with each other. By connecting foster families with other foster families, biological families and trusted resources, families are strengthened and empowered to continue fostering.
