Vice President of Product and Technology

Get to know our Client : Promise686

Our client’s heart is for vulnerable children. With more than 140 million orphans worldwide—and over 400,000 in the United States—they recognize the urgent need for strong families to step in—partnering with churches across the nation to provide children what they need most : safe, loving, and lasting homes. Through their Family Advocacy Ministry (FAM) model, they equip and train churches to support foster, adoptive, and biological families in crisis—mobilizing faith communities to ensure every child has the opportunity to grow up in a family where they are cared for and known.

POSITION OVERVIEW

The Promise vision is to fulfill the promise that “God sets the lonely into families” (Psalm 68 : 6). Promise mobilizes church communities in order to meet three goals : (1) Prevent children from coming into the foster care system. (2) Intervene when children enter the system. (3) Connect children and families when children are in need of a permanent home. The Promise model hinges on developing strong Family Advocacy Ministries (FAMs) in local churches to accomplish this work. The Promise staff works diligently to guide these FAMs to success and to give them the best resources available to maximize impact. Through innovative tools, training, and technology, we help expand care for at-risk children—one community at a time.
