Adoption is the legal process of permanently welcoming a child into your family. Foster care provides a temporary, safe home for a child while their birth family works toward reunification. Kinship care is when a relative or close family friend steps in to care for a child who can’t remain with their parents. Legacy 68:5 supports families on all three paths.

You belong here. Legacy 68:5 supports families and individuals at every point — whether you’re just beginning to explore, years post-placement, or an adult adoptee. Our gatherings, classes, and clinical care through The Oaks are designed for wherever you are today. Q4: Do I need to be a church member to attend a group or receive support? — No. While many of our families attend Houston’s First, all are welcome. Q5: Is there financial help available for adoptive and foster families? — Yes. Through our Assistance Fund, Legacy 68:5 offers pre-placement and post-placement grants as part of our ministry’s commitment to supporting families at every stage.
