Safe Families Canada

About the ministry: Safe Families provides a model in which parents can voluntarily place their child(ren) with a Host Family while retaining custody during the temporary placement. The families that Safe Families supports come from a wide variety of backgrounds and are referred by a school, hospital, church, pregnancy centre, homeless shelter, child welfare agency, or neighbour. A parent may also contact Safe Families themselves when in a time of crisis.

Safe Families Canada’s volunteers serve without compensation and are motivated by the compassion and grace they first received from Jesus Christ.
