Our Families

We wanted to let you see the kids in our Children's Home in their "family" context. 

Our first house parents are Will & Sinndya.  They have two kids of their own, José (7) and Dana (1), and then five more kids that have been with them since January.  There's a sibling group of three -- Carolina (9), Javier (7), and Fernando (4) -- and two more 4-year-olds, Carlitos and Lilian.  This group of kids abound in energy and enthusiasm!  After being together for 4 months, we feel we're really see positive long-term growth in the kids and that they are bonding well as a family unit.

Our other house parents, Oscar & Belkis, have been working with us for about 9 months now, but just recently came to live here as house parents.  They have three, very helpful daughters of their own, Irlen, Tanya, and Pamela and then the five newest kids.  These kids are all related to each other and all came from the same foster home before being placed with us.  We have two sibling groups here: Eugenio (9) and José Antonio (3) are one, and Jared (5) and Juvana (3) are the other.  The last little guy is Junior (5).  We're really enjoying getting to know this group of kids.
