We are proud of our foster parents in Western Arkansas making headlines! Isn't God good? Every Child Arkansas and our partners at DCFS have made fostering a priority in Arkansas. We are seeing changes come to foster care and to the children we care for every day. If you are interested in being part of the progress, we encourage you to visit our website and look into our foster care program or go to the Every Child Arkansas foster care portal to find foster care programs in your area!

Our Area 2 winners, Dale and Rebecca Comstock, are from Sebastian County in western Arkansas. They have been fostering here in Arkansas with Free Will Baptist Family Ministries for three years now, but their foster journey started in North Carolina, where they also served as foster and adoptive parents.The Comstocks are known for accepting all types of placements, but especially teens. In all, they have fostered 34 children, and they firmly believe that all children - but especially teens with years of trauma - deserve a safe, stable home to call their own, for as long as they need it. Regardless of what shape that child’s permanency takes, the focus for the Comstocks is always on strengthening and supporting the whole family - even after the child leaves their home. This level of commitment to fully supporting and loving the teens and families who come into their lives through foster care is why Dale and Rebecca Comstock have been chosen as our Area 2 Foster Parents of the Year.
