FOSTER ADOPT MENTOR
80% of children in residential care across the globe have family that could care for them if given the right support.
While this is not true for every child in Kuda Vana’s care, it is a truth that every Children’s Home must grapple with and strive to become part of the solution and not the problem. Being in safe family is always better for a child. This means that Kuda Vana:
- Only accepts children from Social Services who have no known living family able to care for them
- Prioritizes safe family reunification when possible (read GiGi’s story (pictured at right) of reunification HERE!)
- Facilitates domestic adoption and foster care (read a recent story of adoption HERE!)
Kuda Vana is partnering with local churches, community members and organizations like 1 MILLIONHOME to transition from a model of only traditional residential care to one that also equips and supports families in parenting.
Please note that only citizens of Zimbabwe are considered eligible families for adoption.
