CarePortal is an online database that allows Coyote Hill Foster Care Ministries to submit the needs of foster families to local churches. Once you’ve signed up, notifications will alert your church of a specific need/request, and then your church can respond if they are able to meet it. Join us and CarePortal as YOU mobilize your congregation to be the hands and feet of Jesus in your community.

This could include (but not be limited to) things like: specialized prayer/share times or support groups; providing meals, transportation, respite care, clothing, etc.; plan a respite night or conference for foster/adoptive families.
If you have questions or need more info on any of these ways your church can become a foster friendly church, contact our Family Advocacy Director, Paige Douce.
