BLOOM OUR YOUTH INC
Mission Statement
Bloom is a private, non-profit foster care organization located in Fayetteville, GA. We recruit, support and train our foster families who give displaced children hope and a home life for the next phase of their lives. We believe every child deserves the chance to be the best person they were meant to be. Bloom provides safe shelter and physical, educational and emotional support to children who have been victims of abuse, neglect or other tragic circumstances, in order to strengthen them for the next phase of life. Bloom is a family-centered organization that protects, supports, and empowers foster children and the families who care for them. Our programs are based upon the conviction that…. Each child is an individual, with the right to the kind of care that meets his/her needs regardless of sex, race, creed, national origin or social circumstance. It is important to preserve and strengthen the child’s relationship with family members when possible. Each youth has a right to stability, security, continuity and a plan for permanence.
