Hearts & Homes Family Resource Center - Bozeman, MT
The mission of Hearts and Homes is to provide critical support services to Southwest Montana families who currently have children in foster, kinship, or dual custody care by providing programs and training that aim to preserve and strengthen family ties.
Hearts and Homes began in 1990, providing support to foster parents of children who had been removed from their birth families because of abuse and neglect. While this function continues, a number of programs have been introduced over the years to meet changing needs. Clients are referred to Hearts and Homes by the Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services’ Child Protection Services, the courts, family law practitioners and human service agencies. Self-referrals are also accepted.
