Description

The Batesville Area Chamber of Commerce will host a ribbon-cutting ceremony for The CALL in Independence County on Thursday, December 11 at 1:00 p.m. at 165 E Charles Street in Batesville. The CALL is a non-profit organization that mobilizes local churches to serve local children and youth placed in foster care. They provide a way for Christians to invite the mission field into their homes, to serve those most vulnerable in their communities. The CALL partners with the Division of Children and Family Services to recruit, train and support foster and adoptive families for children and teens in foster care. THe CALL hopes to see a day where there are no children in Arkansas waiting for families. Because what children and youth in foster care need most is a family to care for them as they heal from abuse or neglect. All community supporters, chamber members, ambassadors, board members, and staff are invited to attend.
