In His Hands Children’s Home is located in Trinidad, Texas. Our 10,000 square foot building has been completed renovated (thank you to all of our volunteers and supporters for making this huge renovation possible) and we are completely ready to welcome in children!
We officially have a license with the State, and we have been hiring additional staff as well as completing training! Currently, we are waiting for our contract with the State, for them to bring us children -as well as working on alternative contracts as well. Also, we are accepting applications for private placements as well!! Once officially open, the facility will accommodate about 20 children at a time. The house will also accommodate two sets of house parents and other 24/7 staff to care for the children.
Take a virtual tour of our progress on our Facebook page.
Updates:
As of July 2023:
We are officially licensed as a General Residential Operation for 20 girls!! We are ready for kids and we had been waiting for our contract with CPS to bring us kids. Then we decided to go forward with opening for private placements!! You can now reach out, or send out our information, to contact us regarding applications for placement!
We are excited to jump into this now!! Thank you to everyone who has continued to pray for us and support us this whole time!
How you can help:
Pray: Pray for our staff, the children who will enter our doors, and any volunteers. Pray that the State contractors will help us to receive children quickly. Pray for community relations to continue to strengthen and grow.
Spread awareness: Tell everyone about our ministry and encourage them to get involved in any way possible.
Become a volunteer: Get on the schedule to volunteer weekly or bi-weekly doing specific tasks or filling specific needs at the Home, now or in the future. Volunteers can mentor kids, help with day or overnight supervision,
Donate: This is our biggest need at this time! Monthly donors are essential to operations. The State of Texas only pays a percentage of the cost to run our facility. We need individuals, churches, or businesses who will be willing to invest in the lives of children.
