Florida Baptist Children's Homes is a faith-based, nonprofit organization that provides safe, stable, Christian homes for boys and girls who have been neglected, misdirected, abandoned, abused, or caught up in family turmoil.
The children are provided good medical care, nourishing food, proper clothes, education, counseling, attention, a positive lifestyle and lots of love. And we try to give them a childhood that's as normal as possible under the circumstances. But the most important thing we give them is hope: we teach them about Jesus Christ and how He died for them so that they may have Everlasting Life. In short, we provide for their physical, emotional, social and spiritual needs.
Florida Baptist Children's Homes takes a proactive approach to healing broken lives. During the time a boy or girl is living in one of our facilities or foster homes, our social workers interact with the child and his or her family, house parents or foster parents, to assure progress is being made in their particular situation. The goal is to eventually reunite the child with his or her family, whenever that is in the child's best interest. In the alternative, he or she may remain in our care through high school, placement in foster care or adoptive family. There are thousands of well-adjusted adults now who have deep gratitude for the help, love and guidance they received when they were most vulnerable.
