China
In 2007, Bethany Christian Services received approval from the Chinese government to develop foster care programs with orphanages. In 2008, the project began at the Luohe City Orphanage, which is located in Luohe City, Henan Province, in east-central China.
The Luohe Orphanage is home to approximately 150 children who have physical and psychological disabilities. The foster care program helps to identify and train foster parents who want to take these special children into their homes, care for them, love them, and help them learn to love. The primary objective of the foster care program is to provide each child with a family of his/her own until such a time as permanency, preferably in an adoptive home, can be achieved.
While children are in their care, foster families have access to physicians, physical therapists, education and other community resources to meet the needs of the children. Foster parents may care for up to three children at a time.
Focus on the Family is excited to work in conjunction with Bethany to provide the families these kids need. To learn more, visit BethanyGlobal.org.
