Buckner Foster Care & Adoption

 What We Offer…

 

Buckner Children & Family Services is committed to providing safe and loving homes for at-risk children.  We offer both foster family home placement and foster family group home placement for children with basic, moderate, and specialized levels of care.   Buckner also offers adoption services through our Foster to Adopt, Texas Waiting Children, and Domestic Infant Adoption programs. 

 

Buckner Foster Care and Adoption have tenured staff who work closely with DFPS providing support, assistance with documentation requirements, client crisis resolution, and more.  Buckner staff work as professional team members to ensure that the needs of each child are being efficiently and effectively met.  Buckner is well equipped to provide quality services through our team of experienced professionals.  Buckner Foster Care and Adoption staff have extensive experience working with children who have been abused and neglected and who consequently struggle with mild to severe mental health and behavioral problems.

 

Buckner strives to develop the skills and competencies of foster and adoptive parents in order to effectively meet the physical, emotional, educational, social, and spiritual needs of children entrusted to our care.  At Buckner, we are both personally and professionally dedicated to the restoration and healing of individuals and families.
