Our story

A thoughtful approach to care.

We believe children thrive when the adults and organizations around them work together with compassion, accountability, and a commitment to belonging.

Who we are

Rooted in purpose. Guided by experience.

Adore Children & Family Services is a foster care agency serving children who need safe, nurturing homes and the families who care for them. Our staff brings more than 50 years of combined family-placement experience to that work.

We work alongside caregivers, case managers, and community partners to support the individual needs and strengths of each child, with attention to stability, family connection, and well-being.

Our services also include licensed private adoption work in Pennsylvania and supervised visitation as an additional offering in Virginia.
