Epworth Family Resources develops and supports family’s to become; foster families in the best family-like environment.
We support traditional, relative, and kinship foster homes that provide out-of-home placement for youth ages 0-19.By providing a family, and supportive environment helps reduce the trauma of separation from a youth’s own family. Foster parents help teach and provide consistency and collaboration in a loving environment where children will begin to grow and thrive.
In-Home Services working with children, youth, and families is at the core of Epworth Family Resources compassionate family-centered services. We help families by providing direct assistance and coordination of community resources so the challenges the family is facing are addressed quickly and effectively. We help the family work towards remaining a family unit and/or meet the goals of reunification in a healthy and safe environment.
Epworth Family Resources works with families whose children or youth are in imminent risk of out-of-home placement or who are at the point of coming back into their homes to reunite with their families.
The Center provides care for children 6 weeks to 5 years old.
Our individualized approach to learning allows young children to explore their curiosities and interests through our Creative Curriculum, focusing on STEM subjects, along with social, emotional, cognitive, and physical development.
