Michael and Jenipher have been licensed foster parents for over 4 years. They have fostered 10 children including a teenager, several sibling groups, and have provided a sibling group with a forever family.  They have assisted with supervising family visits and transporting children to visits.  They have been involved in the reunification process for several of the siblings groups placed in their home.  They provide a loving and supportive environment for the children placed in their care and advocate for them to ensure they receive the services needed to help them to thrive.  Thank You Michael and Jenipher for all you do for our foster children and their families.

Liz and Crystal have been licensed foster parents since 2016. During that time, they have cared for scores of children. The family has a praise-worthy passion for nurturing children, especially those with special needs. In fact, Liz and Crystal will often offer mentoring support to other foster families caring for children with unique abilities. They exude patience and devotion in all they do for their biological, adoptive, and foster children alike. The amazing care we have witnessed, makes us extremely proud to partner with this phenomenal family. Thank you Liz and Crystal!

Chelsea and Mathieu have been fostering parents for one year. In just a short amount of time Chelsea and Mathieu have advocated for the child in their home. The child is now enrolled in daycare and received the surgery to improve his hearing. Chelsea and Mathieu incorporate the child culture in their home by providing audio books in English and Spanish. Also, they play Spanish music for the baby to enjoy. Chelsea and Mathieu have a good communication and bond with the childbirth parents. Chelsea and Mathieu are always willing to help and advocate for children in need.

Jessica and Tiffany are new foster parents who have already made a huge impact for foster children. They have been complimented by DCF for “exceptional work with their current foster children”. They are open minded and very flexible- a well respected trait among foster families. Tiffany and Jessica are maintaining 2 sibling groups in their home and has made space for additional children. They understand the importance of maintaining familial connections and being a member of the professional team. Thank you, Tiffany and Jessica, for going over and above as foster parents and for providing a home that is both loving and nurturing!

Jason and Holly have been licensed foster parents since September 2021. The family felt they were called to foster and help children in need as well as their birth families. Since they have been licensed, they have helped with several placements and respites. They recently took in a child that has additional needs; they have been very hands on with the child and going above and beyond to meet each of those needs. Jason and Holly always have children’s best interests in mind. They have been open to mentoring relationships with biological families, helping with transportation, and just representing what it truly means to foster children in need. Since the child they have in their home has been placed with them, the child has thrived, behaviors have lessened, and social development has improved. The family does not hesitate to reach out and seek resources that children need to make sure all their needs are met timely. It has been wonderful collaborating with them these last several months. We are excited to see how much more they will accomplish with their loving, gracious attitude and servant’s hearts.

Michael and Cathy have been licensed foster parents with Camelot for about 4 years. They have always had their hearts open to taking in children with special needs and babies. They are huge advocates for the younger population as they want to provide them the care they require for all of their medical, dental, and social needs. Most of the babies that they have taken have significant medical issues and the family is always willing to travel for them to such places as Miami or Tampa to get them the specialized treatments they need to help them thrive. This family is truly unique as they have adopted and provided a permanent home for some of the children and young adults they have cared for. They also continue to foster and provide for the needs of foster children whom they love. They are devoted resource parents and when it comes down to it there is nothing they wouldn’t do for the children they care for. We are so grateful to have Michael and Cathy as a part of our team.
