We’re incredibly grateful to the The Children's Museum of the Treasure Coast for donating 20 family passes to support our Family Reunification Welcome Home Kits.

Because of them, families beginning their new chapter together will have a fun, meaningful place to learn, play, and bond.

Please show them some love for their community support! childrensmuseumtc.org

Let's kick off Reunification Month by celebrating a beautiful collaboration that’s helping families start their next chapter with joy, connection, and hope.

The Welcome Home Kit initiative began as an idea from our Caregiver Support Team at CCkids and came to life thanks to the generosity and hard work of Michelle Heath of Gobuildlove, Tim Geil of CarePortal, and the incredible students of Jupiter Christian School.

Each kit is filled with items that help families bond and create new memories—board and card games, sports balls, crafts, passes to local family attractions, and gift certificates for shared meals.

Together, we’re reminding families that reunification isn’t just a moment. It’s a beginning.

Together with faith and community leaders, they explored how stronger partnerships between faith communities and child welfare agencies can better support children and families in our community.

💙 Foster Parent Appreciation Month 💙
This month, we want to pause and say thank you to the incredible foster parents who open their hearts and homes to children in need. Your compassion, patience, and selfless love make a lifelong impact—often in ways you may never fully see, but that matter more than words can express.
You are everyday heroes, and we are so grateful for all you do.
If you’ve ever felt a nudge on your heart to make a difference in a child’s life, we invite you to learn more about becoming a foster parent.

Sometimes answering the call can change a life—maybe even yours.
