- NEW PROJECT 1.27 FOSTER FAMILY

PROJECT 1.27 PROVIDES FAMILIES WITH

SUPPORT AND RESOURCES THROUGH:

• Trusted Family Care Managers who provide tools, training,

resources and encouragement

• Training and resources that prepare family and friends to be

an amazing Support Team

• Support Groups for foster, adoptive and kinship families

• Engaging churches and the community in providing meals,

clothing, furniture, school supplies and more for kids in

foster care

Through Project 1.27’s launch of Care Portal in Mesa County,

caseworkers have partnered with 11 churches to keep kids and

families safe. In the first six months, 54 church volunteers served the

families of 92 children by delivering groceries, clothing, bedding,

diapers, school supplies, and helping with gas & rent money.

Project 1.27 provides opportunities for relationship and resources to

hundreds of Colorado kinship, foster, adoptive and at-risk biological

families so they can provide a safe, healing home for the children in

their care.
