Our Story
How We Got Started
CTFOF was founded in January 2019 and was originally started for creating a foster support group for local families. After making contact with our agencies and case workers we were able to get in touch with 6 families and had our first support group on January 16’th 2019.
God quickly moved through the group and made it very clear that there was more to be done than just a foster support group and we needed to reach the community. From there it’s been an adventure and journey with God as the foundation and rock, He is leading the way, clearing a path and we are blessed enough to walk through it with Him!
