God’s concern for the orphan is among the most prominent themes of Scripture, and the call to respond is repeated throughout the Old and New Testaments. Christians have generously and selflessly responded to this call since the early church and have continued to respond to this biblical mandate to address the challenges facing orphaned and vulnerable children living without a safe and loving family.

Rethinking Orphan Care: An Introduction to Family Care introduces the limitations of orphanages, the importance of caring for children in families, and how to shift support to strengthen families, increase alternative family care options, and empower communities. This resource shares inspiring stories, engaging graphics, and explores tangible examples of work being done around the world to see children cared for in safe and loving families.
