When Home Isn’t Safe: Restoring hope for foster youth.
Every foster teen carries a story most of us never hear. Gary and Tammy Webb, directors of OCJ Kids, shed light on the hidden struggles of broken homes, trauma, and the uncertainty of life in the system. They share how their ministry comes alongside foster youth with practical support, mentorship, and hope, and challenge the church to step in and meet teens where they are with the love of Christ.
