For those of you that are unfamiliar with A World For Children, we are a faith based, non-profit child placing agency licensed by the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services Every minute of every day, Texas children fall victim at the hands of their parents. They are abused, neglected, and mistreated in ways that the general public cannot begin to imagine. The children enter the doors o
f A World For Children foster homes with terror, uncertainty, physical scars, and emotional trauma. A World For Children’s foster parents, along with the 24-hour support of A World For Children’s staff, spend every day changing uncertainty into undying stability, mending physical injuries, and providing in-depth treatment for emotional trauma. As a 501(c)(3) non-profit agency, A World For Children contracts with and is licensed by the State of Texas to provide foster and foster-to-adopt services for abused and neglected children across the State. Our agency began in 1997 with a single office in Round Rock. Today, while our corporate office remains in Round Rock, A World For Children is now represented in all 12 regions of the State, with offices in Amarillo, Big Spring, Brownwood, Corpus Christi, Dallas, El Paso, Houston, McAllen, Round Rock, San Antonio, Tyler, and Victoria. Our extensive reach allows foster parents in all areas of the State to have an office close to their home to provide any support they may need. At A World For Children, we pride ourselves on being more than simply a corporation—we’re one big extended family. Our staff bonds with our foster parents on a personal level and our administration knows all 350 families on a first-name basis. The focus is not on churning a profit but is instead on ensuring that every member of the family feels the love and support that is so vital for the complete healing of the children that are served. Since 1997, the family at A World For Children has given extraordinary service to over 7000 children. A World For Children is always looking for new family members that share the vision that the future can truly be better by touching the life of just one child.
