For those children placed with us by the La. Department of Children and Family Services, we receive reimbursement from the State at a set rate per child per house, depending on the child's needs.   This includes a day rate for room and board, and a  minimal amount per month for clothing and personal funds for each child.

This source of funding provides for the basic needs of each child, however for the children to have a well-rounded and normal home life with us, we endeavor to get them involved in recreational activities, art instruction, dance instruction, music instruction and many other educational and cultural activities for which we are not not reimbursed by the State. We provide group therapy for our children so that they can learn social skills and satisfactory interaction with other children and adults.  

We also take children on a private basis who are in need of temporary, emergency shelter, and we generally do not receive payment for this service. 

For these expenditures, we rely on the blessing of financial support from many businesses and individuals in the surrounding communities.  We enjoy a steady stream of local produce and home-cooked food from donors, as well as donations of clothing and toys for Christmas. However, monetary donations are always welcome and useful to supplement the children’s lives here in numerous ways. Football cleats, musical instruments, art supplies, educational computer software, private speech therapy, personalized bedroom décor, outdoor sport equipment, waterslides, barbeques, field trips, museum trips –-- are  all things that we provide for the children with private donation funds.
