Kinship (Relative Care)
Full-time care and support of children by adults with family relations, that are not a parent. Regularly, this care is given by grandparents, aunts, uncles, aunts, siblings, cousin, or fictive-kin (as in teachers, coaches, a close friend of family, etc.) when caregivers are unable to provide care to their children.
Adoption
A lasting and legal marriage between parents and children. We assist in the adoptions of children in the Arizona state foster care system. Onward Hope will help arrange training, support, placement assistance, and guidance throughout this life changing process.
Fostering & Respite Care
This program is the arrangement of temporary, full-time care and support of children who have been removed from their caregivers due to a variety of reasons. Respite Care provides a brief break for families and a chance for youth to socialize through a variety of activities.
