Foster Care Awareness Month


  • Valley Community Church 4455 Del Valle Parkway Pleasanton, CA, 94566 USA (map)

May is Foster Care Awareness Month.

It's a sobering reality that more children enter foster care than there are families available to care for them. Statistics paint a grim picture, showing that over half of domestically recovered child sex trafficking victims come from foster care backgrounds, and youth in foster care are twice as likely to develop Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.

We've united with churches across California and Foster the City not just to raise awareness but also to invite you to join us in prayer. Together, seeking our Heavenly Father to raise up foster families within VCC and raise up Support Friends.

Will you join us in prayer throughout May, asking God to raise up at least one foster family within VCC? You can also utilize our daily prayer guide to lead you through your time of intercession. Check out the missions table in the lobby ALL MONTH IN MAY for more information.
