Featured Success Stories

About Lisa Patel

There are not enough words to describe how wonderful Advantage Foster Family Agency is!  They understand that in order to ensure that the child experiences a loving environment and the best of care, they need to make sure that the foster parent is fully equipped. They made everything as easy as possible so that I could put all my energy into loving on the child that God put in my care. From my 1st call with the director, Vicki to my subsequent meetings with my social worker, Anshu, and communication with Soccoro for all the administrative items, they made sure that I had what I needed to take care of my foster child, whom I eventually adopted! 

  • They are so organized, knowledgeable, informative, resourceful, encouraging and most importantly, loving, which translated into giving me complete support during the whole journey. It’s so clear that their hearts are truly for the children’s best welfare, and every action comes from a place of love and wisdom. The foster care journey can be a winding road and stressful at times, but with the excellent support team behind me, I was able to give my child everything she needed to grow and develop in a healthy way. I can’t imagine taking this journey without them. I highly recommend Advantage Foster Family Agency for anyone considering becoming a foster parent. They will support you so that your child with thrive with joy…and your heart will be filled with joy as well!

About Carla and Rebecca

My wife, Rebecca, and I became part of the AFFA family in 2019, engaging in fostering and providing respite care for over 12 children. Our commitment to fostering deepened significantly when we chose to adopt four wonderful boys into our family. Throughout this transformative process, Vicki, the driving force behind AFFA, has been an unwavering source of support. Vicki's wealth of experience and extensive network in the field have been invaluable to us. She approaches fostering and adoption with a unique blend of directness and compassion, consistently speaking the truth with genuine care. Her dedication to the well-being of children and families is evident and is reflected in every interaction we've had with her.

  • One standout aspect of AFFA is the exceptional team of social workers that Vicki has assembled. They are not only helpful but also incredibly knowledgeable, providing us with the guidance and support needed to navigate the complexities of fostering and adoption. Their expertise has served as a bridge, facilitating seamless communication with county social workers and ensuring a collaborative effort in the best interest of the children. In our journey with AFFA, we have discovered a community that extends beyond the conventional boundaries of an agency. It is a supportive network that understands the challenges and joys of foster care and adoption. The sense of belonging and camaraderie fostered by Vicki and her team is unparalleled.

    Rebecca and I wholeheartedly recommend Advantage Foster Family Agency to anyone considering or currently engaged in fostering or adoption. It is an organization rooted in compassion, integrity, and a genuine commitment to making a positive impact on the lives of children. We are forever grateful for the role AFFA played in bringing love and joy into our home.

    Sincerely,

    Carla and Rebecca

About Shelby and Brian

We started with Advantage after meeting Vicki Rider at Social Services. She was so kind and helpful with our questions in regard to joining an FFA. We were originally foster parents through the county, but we are incredibly thankful we made the switch. Advantage has been there for us every step of the way. We have been foster parents for a little over 6 years & have adopted two children. They are supportive with not only facilitating visitation, but overall any questions or concerns that you may have. It has been a beautiful journey working with Advantage and our family is forever grateful.
