Our Mission "to create a healing environment within a familial structure, which includes acceptance, respect and the celebration of unconditional love." Who We Are Agape was founded in 1989 in order to place children into foster homes which could guide and support youth in becoming functioning individuals in society. Over the past 19 years Agape for Youth, Inc. has built a strong reputation in the community as a leader in quality therapeutic foster care. Over the years Agape has expanded its services to include family foster care, providing adoption home studies, preparation of families and children for adoption, and supportive services to adoptive families. The most recent expansion is the "Reunification Services" program that has provided the opportunity to work with families whose children are making the transition from foster care back to their biological family. With additional services and continued growth, Agape for Youth, Inc. continues to uphold the fundamental belief of providing personal services to each family and youth working with our agency and supporting those individuals as they work together as for the success of the youth. Agape is a Koine Greek word that has at its root meaning the idea of an “unconditional love” or a love that is shared in an atmosphere where there are no conditions to be made by a person before it is received. As a foster care and adoption agency, Agape for Youth, Inc. embraces the principle that each individual youth we serve is a person of worth. Our sincere commitment is to accept each youth that comes into our program in a way that they may find viable alternatives to meet the special needs in their life. Also, Agape seeks to demonstrate an acceptance that has no strings attached due to dysfunctional behavior, physical limitation, culture, color, sex, religion or national origin. Our goal is to work as a team together with the child’s biological family, local Children Services, the foster/adoptive parents and the youth to build greater opportunities for development and enrichment.
