SERVICES
Has your family grown by adoption or PMC?
We have FREE resources available to adoptive families
We are dedicated to supporting families throughout their adoption journey and beyond. Our Post-Adoption Services, part of the Heart Galleries of Texas initiative, are funded through our partnership with the University of Texas, Steve Hicks School of Social Work, and the Moritz Center for Societal Impact. Working with their team, we received funding in the 88th Legislative Session to support the Heart Galleries of Texas expansion and Post-Adopt services, all designed to help families thrive after bringing a child into their home. ​If you’ve adopted from foster care or a Permanency Managed Care (PMC) program, you qualify for our services! We understand that every family's journey is unique, and we’re here to provide the guidance and support you need as the next step in ensuring that our forever families thrive. ​You can see all our services listed below. Together, we can create a nurturing environment for your family to flourish!
Mental Health Services
Free mental health services for families who have adopted or achieved permanency from foster care. Our compassionate teams provide counseling and resources tailored to the unique challenges of adoption, helping families thrive together.
Respite Care
​We’re partnering with Arms Wide to offer essential respite care for families with adopted children from foster care. Families can provide their own caregiver and will be reimbursed by Arms Wide. Our program offers a supportive break for parents, allowing them to recharge while ensuring their children are cared for in a nurturing environment. Enjoy peace of mind knowing your loved ones are supported, helping you maintain balance and well-being.
Family Connections
Family Connections fosters a vibrant community for families with adopted children from foster care. We offer support groups, annual meet-up trips, and family fun days, while also covering costs for normalcy activities that benefit adoptive families. Together, we create a supportive network where families can share experiences, celebrate joys, and navigate challenges—because every family deserves connection and joy!
Other Resources
We want to share free resources for adoptive parents to help you on your journey, though we do not provide these resources ourselves. Explore educational materials, online workshops, parenting guides, and local support networks designed for adoptive families. Gain insights into trauma-informed care and attachment strategies. Together, let’s build a community of informed and connected families!
