Neighborhood Foster Care

Family-Style Foster Care That Keeps Palm Beach Siblings Together

Place of Hope provides faith-based state-licensed, Neighborhood Foster Care that prioritizes a safe and loving family environment and keeping siblings together.

Neighborhood Foster Care is more than a placement—it is a path to healing

Across our campuses, we provide structured, loving, faith-based homes for children in foster care, especially large sibling groups and those considered difficult to place. Children deserve stability, and our family-style model ensures that they receive it.

Children in foster care often experience multiple home changes, deep emotional trauma, and separation from their siblings. Our licensed cottages—each led by professionally trained live-in foster parents—create a nurturing and consistent family setting that supports recovery and personal growth.

Two children sit closely together on a light-colored couch, focused on a tablet. The girl wears pink pajamas, and the boy wears navy and red pajamas. Cushions with patterns are in the background, reflecting the warmth supported by charities for children.

Sibling Unity

Children placed in our homes are kept with their brothers and sisters whenever possible. This preserves emotional bonds and eases the trauma of displacement.
