Foster Care Community

Learn how to support foster care families in our community and join others in our church family to offer a ministry of care and support. To learn more, contact Ryan Agnew (ragnew@westsideleavenworth.com)

The church has the most experience as it has been caring for vulnerable children throughout history (until foster care was created in the 19th century).

Foster Care Community is a ministry to mobilize a group of people to support a foster family.

We believe that children belong in the care of healthy, loving families. And that families should be supported by their local church and caring members of their community. This philosophy – established by our parent organization, The Global Orphan Project, as ‘Circles of Care’ – puts the child at the center of everything we do and fundamentally guides our work to ensure a healthier, family-style model of care for every child we serve.
