Foster, adopt, and infertility group support:
“Much of Jesus’ ministry happened around the table. We believe that positive change happens when 3 or 4 people commit to follow Jesus by engaging the Scriptures and praying together.
Table Groups can be easily understood by this acrostic:
T – Together (3 or 4 people)
A – Ask (How are you doing?)
B – Bible (Read Scripture together)
L – Love (How can I serve you during this time?)
E – Encounter (Prayer for each other)
Table Groups happen in the spring and the fall for about ten weeks. Each table has a host who will coordinate the group.”
Meals, support group, and prayers.
“To support, educate, and advocate on behalf of foster and adoptive families.”

“Our innovative trauma-focused approach combines nurturing, highly-trained foster parents with intensive home-based counseling for children and adolescents exhibiting significant emotional/behavioral disabilities. Treatment parents work hand-in-hand with our clinical team, which includes a therapist and psychiatrist, to help these vulnerable youth learn and practice positive social behaviors in a supportive family setting. This unique program is the largest of its kind in Florida.”
Jewish Family & Community Services (JFCS) provides quality social and community services across the life spectrum to enhance the lives of children, adults, seniors and families coping with challenges that arise throughout the lifecycle.
The Family Integrity Program’s mission is to work in partnership with the State of Florida and the local community to develop, implement and manage a highly effective, strength-based community-based system of care for abused and neglected children and their families. All situations cannot be categorized with hard and fast guidelines. So the Family Integrity Program provides different types of intervention.
Ensuring the safety of children through a holistic approach designed to support the health and well-being of families in order to build a healthier community one family at a time.
” As the lead agency in Northeast Florida, FSS is responsible for administering, outsourcing and managing its services to the community, both directly and indirectly, in partnership with other local case management organizations (CMOs).
We collaborate with Daniel Kids, Jewish Family & Community Services and the National Youth Advocate Program to provide services that impact hundreds of at-risk children and their families every day. Our Nassau service center provides direct services to children and families in Fernandina Beach, Amelia Island, Hilliard, Callahan, Yulee, Bryceville and surrounding areas.
Together, we provide a comprehensive system of care to keep children safely in their homes. We mobilize to stabilize families without the need of intrusive and costly interventions.”
