A partner agency of Church on The Rock Homer

Safe Families for Children is a church movement committed to protecting children from potential abuse or neglect when their families experience crisis. The church is committed to building a supportive community around families in their time of need. By temporarily placing children with certified Host Familes, parents receive the time and tools needed to help them re-establish stability for themselves and their families.

All parents need help at times. By calling the Helpline, parents can get connected to the support they need. Typical placing families may experience:

• Unemployment
• Medical/Emotional Crisis
• Financial Problems
• Homelessness
• Incarceration (Jail Time)
• Addiction Recovery Program

Placement is voluntary and parental rights are retained by the Placing Parents. Reuniting families as soon as possible is a priority.

Helpline: 907-277-0925
