Our History
In October 2025, Access Foster Care & Adoption moved out from under the umbrella of Access Services to expand and grow this important work. This decision was made with deep intention, rooted in our shared passion for vulnerable children. Much work has been done, and many lives have been impacted by the Foster Care program since its inception in 1994. There is still much work to be done, and Access Foster Care & Adoption will be able to continue this strong legacy.
