Hope’s Bridge equips kinship and adoptive families with Christ-centered education, resources, and community—so no family walks alone.
To see every kinship and adoptive family supported in love—preserving family bonds, promoting long-term stability, and reflecting the heart of the Good Shepherd who leaves the ninety-nine to care for the one (Luke 15:4)
Wraparound Services
We don’t just care for children, we care for the whole family. Our Christ-centered wraparound care is designed to support kinship, fictive kinship, and adoptive families as they work toward healing and long-term stability. These services are essential to preserving family bonds and helping prevent the need for state custody.
How We Support Families:
Relational Support: We build trusted relationships with caregivers, offering encouragement, mentorship, and community rooted in Christ’s love. There will be community building opportunities monthly for parents/caregivers and their children.
Material Support: We meet urgent needs by providing essentials like clothing, diapers, hygiene products, groceries, and baby gear, relieving stress and lifting burdens.
Education: We offer quarterly trauma-informed workshops focusing on the care of children in a kinship/adoptive setting. Our goal is to have a yearly community conference held by local organizational leaders educating kinship and adoptive parents on trauma-informed parenting and techniques.
Ongoing Care: Our team and volunteers walk alongside families through every season — offering prayer, transportation, referrals, and hands-on support.
De-escalating Crisis: We offer safe, stabilizing support before families reach a breaking point, helping to prevent the need for foster care or state intervention.
