Devereux Florida - Foster Care
Some of these children live in our community - they attend school with our children, worship with us and visit the same grocery store. There is an ever growing need for communities to embrace these kids - for strong and nurturing families to open their homes to these children. Crisis respite homes are 30-45 day placements developed to serve clients who are targeted for a residential placement or returning from a residential placement awaiting a permanent "step down". Children come into the foster care system for a variety of reasons. Some children enter foster care because their parents have substance abuse problems. Some children were simply abandoned. Most often it is because of distressing family situations that often lead to neglect and/or abuse of the child/children.More than half the children are of minority descent. Sadly, many of them have experienced abuse and neglect, and all have endured the trauma of being separated from their families. The challenges differ from child to child, but they all long for unconditional love, patience and understanding.
