About this organization
Mission
Our mission is to share the love of Christ by helping Maryland's most vulnerable children thrive in families.
About
The CHOSEN program provides family-based Treatment Foster Care (TFC) for children and youth who have been removed from their homes by a local Department of Social Services (DSS). Due to childhood trauma they require more than the basic care, support, love and nurturing that regular foster care provides. Our approach is attachment-based and trauma informed and is designed to meet the complex needs of vulnerable children. CHOSEN staff trains and provides weekly in-home support to treatment foster parents so they can provide care that helps the youth heal from trauma and teaches new coping skills. The hopeful outcome is that the children remain stable in their foster family and eventually meet their permanency goal.
