We’ve had many people reach out recently with questions about fostering. There is a need in our community right now.

If you’ve ever been curious about what fostering looks like, or have thought about opening your home to a child, tonight’s opportunity is a great place to start.

Our partners at NWF Health Network are hosting a Foster Care Information Session tonight at 7:00 PM Central / 8:00 PM Eastern.

If you’ve been thinking, “Maybe I could foster, but I just need more information,” this is your chance to learn more, ask questions, and hear what the process looks like.

The link to sign up is in their post below. 😊

Join us for a Foster Care Information Session!

This is a wonderful opportunity to learn how you can make a difference in the lives of children in foster care.

You can get answers about the foster care process and requirements or simply discover ways to support local families.

🗓️ Monday, October 5
⏰ 7:00 PM CST / 8:00 PM EST

Congratulations, Lawrence on being inducted into the State Athletics Hall of Fame. We are proud of you and thankful to have you on our team as as you live the mission daily “to forever touch the lives of those we serve.”

🏈 FROM THE FOOTBALL FIELD TO THE HALL OF FAME — AND MAKING AN IMPACT IN OUR COMMUNITY!
We are SUPER proud to celebrate our very own RN/RNC, Lawrence “Big Daddy” Hunt, on his induction into the Iowa State Athletics Hall of Fame Class of 2026!
A former Cyclone football standout, Lawrence finished his career with 334 tackles, earned three All-Big Eight selections, was named a Sophomore All-American, and recorded an incredible 19 tackles against No. 3 Oklahoma!
But Lawrence’s legacy extends far beyond the football field. For years, he has been a dedicated advocate for young people, using his experience, heart, and leadership to help youth overcome challenges and reach their potential.
Today, we are honored to have Lawrence as part of the Twin Oaks Project Connect – Aftercare Resource Navigator program, where he continues to make a meaningful impact in the lives of young people in our community.
Congratulations, Lawrence! Your legacy of leadership, service, and excellence continues to inspire. We are SO proud to have you on our team!

Celebrating 57 Work Anniversaries Across Twin Oaks!

August was a BIG month at Twin Oaks Juvenile Development as we celebrated 57 incredible work anniversaries across the agency!

Every anniversary represents another year of showing up, serving others, and helping us “forever touch the lives of those we serve.”

We are incredibly thankful for EVERY person celebrating an August anniversary, whether you’ve been part of the Twin Oaks family for one year or more than 20. Your dedication, commitment, and the difference you make each day matter more than you know.

And today, we’re giving a special spotlight to those celebrating milestone anniversaries of 5, 10, 15, 20+ years! These milestones represent years of consistency, growth, dedication, and countless lives impacted along the way.

57 anniversaries. Countless lives touched. One Twin Oaks family.

We are incredibly proud of the work being done across all of our Boys and Girls Programs. As we begin a new school year, we are excited about the opportunities for personal growth and continued success that await all of the youth that we serve. We look forward to seeing what this year brings!

We are STILL celebrating! 🏆📚✨

Last week in Tampa, the Boys & Girls Club of Tabula Rasa was honored by the Florida Area Council as the Academic Success Program of the Year!

This award celebrates our Disney Dreamers Program, where Club youth across our sites read more than 5,000 books this summer! 📖

By using the magic of Disney to make reading and math exciting, we helped our kids discover that learning can be an adventure.

We are incredibly proud of our youth, staff, families, and partners who made this possible.

Great Futures Start Here! 💙💛
