Adoption

You don’t have to be perfect to be the perfect parent for a child in foster care.  Our children don’t need perfection; they need the commitment and love a forever family can provide.  Eckerd Community Alternatives believes there are families out there for every child living in foster care – we just need to find them.  Families who understand their strengths and limitations, and aren’t afraid to advocate on behalf of themselves.  Who can be consistent yet flexible; strong yet nurturing.  Who have the patience, commitment, and unconditional regard to give our children and teens, so they can adjust, grow and thrive in a safe, stable permanent home.
