Foster Care and Adoption
62,000 children in California need out-of-home care!
Since 1996, A Better Way has been enabling individuals, couples, & families to provide safe, nurturing environments through foster care and adoption.
With A Better Way, you can provide foster care to children until their permanent caregiver brings them home. Or, adopt through foster care and help children in need while permanently growing your family.
After we prepare and legally approve you to foster or adopt, we will match you with a child/children and support you to nurture them. Our services are free to you. To learn more, explore this website and join one of our upcoming morning or evening orientations.
