Mobridge Foster Closet

We are starting 2026 with grateful hearts!

💜 Local foster families were gifted sweet little gift bags full of family fun goodies from a homeschool co-op.
💜 A TON of books were donated to be gifted to kiddos.
💜 24 (and counting!) 48 hr kits have been packed and are ready to be delivered to the local DSS offices.
💜 The closet is overflowing with ongoing donations.

We can't say thank you enough! We are looking forward to another great year serving local foster families and DSS offices.

It takes all of us. Some open their homes. Some open their time. Some open their hearts.

Every “something” creates more belonging for children in care and support for foster families.

Foster families are urgently needed across the state for children of all ages and backgrounds. Having more families helps ensure children are placed in homes that best match their needs and give them a chance to thrive.

Today, we especially need families who can support:

Native American Children
ICWA gives preference for Native American children to be placed with extended family, members of their tribe, or other Native American families. If you can help a child stay connected to their culture and heritage, your role is vital.

Teens
Older youth often wait the longest for foster families. They need a steady adult to guide, support, and help them prepare for adulthood.

Brothers and Sisters
Siblings are often each other’s anchor. Families willing to foster multiple children help them stay connected.

Children with Specialized Needs
Some children have medical, emotional, or developmental needs that require extra care. With training and support, you can be the difference in their life.

If you’re interested in learning more about becoming a foster family, we’d love to talk to you. Every child deserves a safe, loving home.

In foster care, the ultimate goal is reunification. Foster families play a vital role in this journey by offering love, stability, and support during the season of transition.
