Our Mission
Building, Strengthening, and Restoring Families for God’s Glory
For more than 130 years, Arkansas Baptist Children & Family Ministries has cared for children and families across Arkansas.
Today, that mission continues through Christ-centered care and services designed to meet children and families where they are and walk alongside them through different seasons of life.
Why We Do This
We believe caring for families helps children flourish.
Children and families experience challenges that can take many forms. We believe the church has an important role in caring for them and that families are strengthened when people come alongside them with compassion, practical care, and hope.
