Testimonials

“My experience with Caring for Kids was great! I was provided a great deal of support by my caseworker, who was available to me whenever I needed her. I had the opportunity to work with the executive director; her wisdom and personal experience helped guide me through the adoption process. I was impressed that she took the time out of her busy schedule to meet with me on a weekly basis. The name of the agency should speak for itself.”
–Sonya Foster-to-Adoptive Parent
“I heard about Caring for Kids through my brother. I was looking for an agency that cared about me and my child’s well-being. CFK did this and more. They treated me like family which was great. The staff at CFK made me feel amazing; they made me feel like my opinion counted. I would recommend CFK to other people because CFK will make your heart feel at ease.”
–Sodia Birth Mother
“When I had my daughter, she was a surprise as I had no idea I was pregnant. When my CFK counselor came to speak with me to help me make an adoption plan, I immediately became at ease with her and my choice. She has been an amazing blessing and if I did not have her I don’t think I would have survived the “pot holes” through this journey. Caring for Kids has been an amazing agency with some of the most amazing people I have ever met. Thanks to them and the family I have met and chosen through them, I can actually say I do not regret my decision. A big thank you to Caring for Kids.”
