TFI Family Connections, Tulsa

TFI Family Connections is a nonprofit that recruits foster parents for youth in Oklahoma's child-welfare system. It also provides support throughout the process, including approval, home placement, and the unique care needs of foster children. In its quest to provide homes for children, TFI Family Connections provides on-call social workers, support groups, respite care, consistent personal case managers, in-home behavioral health services, and reimbursements. The organization periodically hosts events—from the Salsa De Mayo food fest to races to benefit concerts—to fund its search for prospective foster parents and support for existing families in its network.
