Case For Character Foster Care & Education | Because of the lack of consistency in a foster child's life, due to frequent moving and relocating, a child's education while in the foster care system can greatly suffer. | www.foreverkids.org

Any American Christian who sincerely desires to care for orphans should heavily consider adopting in the United States and/or fostering children. Nationwide, according to AFCARS in 2013, there were 402,378 children in foster care, and 101,840 of those are waiting to be adopted. In North Carolina, there are almost 9,000 churches. according to Children's Defense Fund, there were 8,828 children in foster care in 2012. If each church took one child to care for, the body of Christ would eliminate the state's foster care system.
