The James Project Wrap Around Foster Care Support in Sangamon County.

The James Project consists of three main ministries: Call 1:27, James Place, and Closet 1:27

Call 1:27 recruits, educates and supports those desiring to become foster or adoptive parents and those who are already following that call. James Place is a home that takes in foster children providing them with a long term, Christ-centered home environment as long as needed until they return home or are adopted. Closet 1:27 fills the need many foster children have when coming into care and not having the necessities and clothing needed. We provide clothing, toiletries, and baby items/furniture to those coming into care or transitioning to a new home.
