Give
The Houston community has what it takes to address the root causes of the foster care crisis. When we work together, each with our own unique skills and resources, we can build a better future for every family in our community. Join the Riverside Project by contributing a one-time or monthly gift.
Featured Program
The Response Network
The Response Network is how we mobilize the community to meet the practical needs of vulnerable families. CPS investigators and caseworkers submit needs through an online form, and our team works to mobilize our network of churches, foster closets, nonprofits, and other community partners to meet those needs, in addition to ongoing support, relationship, and encouragement. Funds raised for this program provide training for community responders as well as tangible items/services that help families stabilize.
