A loving home is the beginning.
When a child enters a foster family, there is much to celebrate. But disability, chronic illness, and the wounds of abandonment, abuse, or institutional care do not disappear with a change of address.
Children need time, trusted relationships, and care that responds to their individual needs. Families need encouragement, guidance, and practical resources to sustain that care.
Overture’s Haitian social workers continue walking alongside children and families through home visits, counseling, safety monitoring, and help accessing essential services.
Guided by our Christian faith, we stay to help children heal and families grow stronger.
​
What staying makes possible:
THE CHILD who has experienced abandonment, abuse, trauma or institutional care - providing the counseling, healthcare, encouragement and consistent support needed to heal, grow and experience the security of family.
THE FOSTER FAMILY who opens their home and heart to a child with complex needs - walking alongside caregivers with the resources, guidance and practical assistance needed to provide safe, loving and lasting care.
THE BIOLOGICAL FAMILY working to overcome hardship and remain together - strengthening parents and relatives with the support, education and resources needed to protect their children and prevent separation.
THE COMMUNITY where children and families belong - working alongside local leaders, churches and child protection partners to build stronger networks of care that help families remain safe, supported and resilient.
Because we stayed.
ABNER'S STORY
Abner spent nearly his entire childhood in an orphanage. Despite continued family tracing, our social workers were unable to locate his biological family. By the time the orphanage closed, he had reached adulthood and was no longer eligible for foster care.
Turning 18 did not erase the effects of abandonment or prepare him to navigate life alone. So Overture stayed. A social worker provided consistent encouragement and psychosocial support as Abner pursued vocational opportunities and built an independent life. Today, he works as a plumber at the Southern Child Protection Complex and is studying agronomy, paying his own college tuition.

​One Day. $5,000.
A year of support for two children.
This Giving Tuesday, help children with complex needs receive continued care within the security of a foster family. Your gift helps provide essential resources and keeps our Haitian social workers walking alongside children and caregivers. Every Giving Tuesday gift counts toward our overall $125,000 Haiti Stronger goal.
Keep the promise. Help us stay.
A foster family should not have to carry the responsibility of caring for a child with complex needs alone. Your generosity helps surround that family with professional support, practical resources, and encouragement throughout the year.
​
Together, we can help children experience the safety, love, and continued care they deserve.
Give once or make a monthly commitment. Every gift helps.
​​Please pray with us for these children, the families welcoming them, and our Haitian team as they continue this work.
