Ministries
We currently have four visit centers. We have centers in Paragould, Jonesboro, Forrest City, and Pocahontas. These centers provide a safe, family-friendly, and private environment for children in foster care to visit weekly with their biological families. Our centers have games, crafts, and activities that families can do together. These centers allow for children in care to bond with their biological family and continue to work to restore their relationship. Previously, these visits took place in local DHS offices, McDonalds, and parks. We are hoping to expand to other counties in Northeast Arkansas in the near future.
We have Manna Meals Freezers in Paragould, Jonesboro, Rector, Forrest City, and Pocahontas. Foster families from all across Northeast Arkansas and The Delta can access these freezers whenever they receive a new placement or there is an emergency and/or sickness within their home. 3-4 frozen meals are delivered to allow families time to focus on welcoming the new child into their home. It allows families to build a relationship with their new placement and not have to worry about what’s for dinner.
We currently have 5 clothing. Our clothing closets are stocked with anything a child could need during their time in foster care. DCFS staff have 24-hour access and foster parents can schedule appointments that best fit their schedule. Our clothing closets are FREE!
