Resource Center
At Foster Village Houston, our heart is to make life a little easier for caregivers who say “yes” to kids at a moment’s notice. We know those first days of a new placement can feel overwhelming, and our goal is to connect families with the essentials that help them focus on what matters most—welcoming a child with love and stability.
We also know that children in foster care often experience far too much uncertainty. Too many spend their first hours or days in cold, institutional spaces that only add to their trauma. However, research and experience both indicate that children heal best in environments that feel safe, warm, and specifically designed for them. That’s why our Resource Center is intentionally created to be child-friendly, trauma-informed, and a space where every child feels seen and cared for.
Our Resource Center—stocked and sustained by the generosity of the community—is more than just shelves of clothes, car seats, and beds. It is a safe haven where kids can play, caregivers can breathe, and families can gather support.
When children walk through our doors, they know immediately: this is their place. A place that reminds them they are safe, loved, and not alone.
Items we provide at our Resource Center include: 
- Clothes
- Beds
- Cribs
- Car seats
- Strollers
- Pack n Plays
- Infant necessities
- Welcome Packs, designed for children coming into care as emergency placements (these are custom packed for each child and generally contain about seven outfits, some basic toiletries, new socks, new underpants/diapers, books, and a cuddly toy)
- And much more!
When caregivers submit requests for new placements, they have the option to come “shop” free of charge or have one of our volunteers deliver items to their home within our coverage area. We do our best to honor all requests from licensed foster families bringing in emergency placements, kinship families, case workers, CASA, and reunifying biological families working with CPS. Our current service areas include Harris County, Fort Bend County, Waller County, and Montgomery County.
Let us know what you need by filling out our REQUEST FORM. We will get back to you as quickly as possible.
“I am obsessed with Foster Village Houston!! The staff and volunteers are wonderful, kind and so helpful! We were gifted a bunk bed and needed mattresses, bedding and one of our kiddos came to us with literally only the clothes on his back. Luckily, I reached out to Foster Village Houston and they gifted us clothing, a backpack and a few toys! Thank you for helping us welcome this amazing young man and making him feel loved!" - Tori
