Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Find quick answers to common questions about The Foster Collaborative and how we serve our community.

What is The Foster Collaborative?

We're a faith-based network that unites churches, agencies, and community partners to support children and families in foster care throughout Allen County. Our mission is to connect, collaborate, and serve as one community.

How can I get involved?

There are many ways to serve! You can follow our social media, join training programs, connect your church, volunteer directly, or sponsor projects. Visit our Get Involved page to learn more about specific opportunities.

Are you a placement agency?

No, we are not a placement or licensing agency. We exist to connect, collaborate, and serve as an expression of Christ's love. We work alongside existing agencies and services to support families.

How do you choose resources?

We look for local, accessible, and family-friendly options that align with our values. All resources are carefully vetted, though inclusion doesn't equal full endorsement. We recommend verifying details directly with each organization.

Can I submit an event?

Absolutely! If you're hosting something that blesses kids and families in foster care, we'd love to hear about it. Submit your event through our contact form, and we'll review it for our community calendar.

How often do you update your content?

We strive to keep all information current and relevant. Our social media is updated weekly, and we regularly review and update our resource lists and event calendar to serve our community best.
