Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless; maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed. Rescue the weak and needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked. Psalm 82:3-4
In Wisconsin alone, nearly 6,000 children are cared for in out of home placement or foster care each year. Many children are not able to find a long-term home or a place to live where they truly believe they belong and fit in. Children need to know they are loved and feel a part of their family. Building bonds will enrich lives; build self-esteem and children’s self-concept. Children need opportunities to feel special, realize their dreams and regain or retain hope for their future.
