The Big Question: Do You Only Work with Teens?
|
|
In foster care, yes, but in the
Families
Helping Families Program our experienced parents mentor and
advocate for families with children of all ages.
Our foster parents have their own children and have fostered numerous
Teens.
Support of Young Adults has also become a big part of the
ministry of ODFT.

What Makes ODFT Unique?
|
|
We specialize in instilling a strong moral
base and establishing emotional roots and values in all areas of the
children's lives to prepare them for their return to the Family and to
the
Community. Open Door for Teens, Inc. is dedicated
to the institution of the Family and Foster Care as a resource in
stabilizing children of abuse and neglect. Counseling is provided by
the agencies we serve.
By parenting the "Old-Fashioned Way", ODFT
is also dedicated to preventing the need for Teens
to ask the question, "Do I (or my girlfriend) need to choose to have an
abortion?" Essentially, a Pro-life activity with no
negative outcome.

How Do ODFT Foster Parents Become Qualified?
|
|
Our Foster Parents are trained and
licensed by the
Department of Children & Family Services
(DCFS) and the
DuPage County Juvenile Probation Department.
