The posture of pausing, noticing, and seeing a person is the heart of biblical hospitality. This is a radical way of practicing hospitality!

Let's think about practicing hospitality in two ways. First, to share with those “who are in need.” Since we ALL have needs, every encounter is an opportunity to notice others' needs, NOT to think about yourself.

Second, practice hospitality. This skill isn't reserved for individuals who excel at entertaining, but a Christ-like posture that can be learned over time as we start to pause, notice, and see people around us.

Family preservation refers to the ways we can keep families together and help them thrive. By providing family-focused PREVENTION services for families facing crisis, the goal is to improve parenting and family functioning, keep children safely at home, and prevent unnecessary involvement in foster care.

Prevention services emphasize building on a family's existing strengths while addressing underlying issues such as poverty, lack of access to basic resources, or dealing with challenging situations such as homelessness, unemployment, and a lack of child care. The overarching aim is to prevent the trauma of separation and promote long-term family stability and independence.

Our evidence-based and Family First-approved model is keeping families together! Check out our newly released Annual Report at https://bit.ly/3QjumAM to read more about how we are impacting families nationally and globally!

Family Preservation starts with community. When parents feel overwhelmed and isolated, a circle of support can make all the difference. The goal is to support parents by showing up and offering community before a crisis becomes a breaking point.

No family should have to face a crisis alone! Let’s be the community every family should have.

Q: How much time does it take to be a Family Friend?

A: It can be flexible.

Some Family Friends check in weekly, while others help with specific needs as they arise.

Even small, consistent moments can make a big impact. 💛

The Safe Families for Children (SFFC) movement is made up of thousands of amazing volunteers who step forward to open their hearts and homes to walk alongside families facing crisis. What they do is no small feat!

Meet Brad and Elizabeth, who saw God's calling to impact every aspect of their life as a Host Family, Ministry Lead, and Financial Partner with SFFC.

"We acknowledge our level of engagement is a bit unique! But we couldn’t be more grateful for the opportunity it’s provided for us to see the beauty and power of God on display, for all the ways this has spiritually transformed our family, and the joy we’ve experienced as a result of being more deeply connected with Safe Families for Children and the many people tied to it."

It is because of their commitment to live out radical hospitality, disruptive generosity, and intentional compassion that helps change lives and transform communities.

Check out our newly published 2025 Annual Report that shares how God is growing the SFFC movement to serve and support more children and families.
