Upcoming Events

  • Apr 10, 2010: Therapy Options for Kids at Rhea's Mill Baptist Church
    Many foster and adoptive parents struggle to find the best therapy to meet their child's unique needs. Therapy Options for Kids provides parents with the unique opportunity to learn about a variety of therapy options for children in their care.

    Therapists in the areas of play therapy, speech therapy, equine therapy and animal assisted therapy will present interactive therapy demonstration sessions. Additionally, a Medicaid specialist will host a session on navigating Medicaid and finding therapy providers.

    Childcare is provided for a cost of only $5 per child (ages 0-12) and advanced registration is required.

    Please RSVP to denise@embracetexas.org. The cost of this event is also $5 per person. A PayPal invoice will be sent upon registration or you may mail a check to Embrace, PO Box 908, Prosper, TX 75078. Please make checks payable to Embrace.

    Embrace events are open to foster and adoptive parents from any child placing agency, and training certificates will be provided for training hours.

 

About DFW Alliance

The DFW Alliance was organized in early 2006 to bring together local church adoption and orphan care ministries from various Christian churches in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area. It was founded by Tapestry, a ministry for adoptive and foster families at Irving Bible Church in Irving, Texas, and “His Child” Orphan Care Ministry at Christ Chapel Bible Church in Ft. Worth, Texas.

The DFW Alliance seeks to provide area ministries and church leaders with opportunities to share ideas and coordinate and collaborate on events and activities to serve adoptive and foster families as well as orphans, at-risk children and children in the local foster care system. The DFW Alliance also focuses on efforts to create and support effective local church adoption, foster care and orphan care ministries across the Dallas/Fort Worth area.
