Programs at MFC
The Michiana Family Center mission is to collaborate with our community to provide wrap-around and uplifting support for children and families experiencing Foster Care in Michiana.
Support Groups
Support groups facilitated via MFC provide emotional and practical encouragement to foster and adoptive parents.
At Michiana Family Center we want to showcase the capabilities of the foster parents already engaged in this difficult, but extremely important and rewarding work. We bring encouragement every meeting and facilitate relationships among foster parents of different amounts of experience. Frequently, guest speakers attend in order to provide real tools these parents can use to help support all the children in their care.
Periodically we have special meetings as events and guidelines allow. Past events have included themes like pool and popsicles and cookouts. Members of all groups are welcome to join and continue to gain community at these events.
