Curious about adoption but not sure you will have the support you need? In West Texas, you don’t have to do it alone. Here are trusted, local supports that make the journey doable—from first questions to first nights home.
The Attic Resource Center (TheAtticFN.org) is often the first call families make because it meets practical needs fast. Beds, cribs, mattresses, car seats, clothing, and hygiene items are available quickly so kids can stay close to home and caregivers aren’t stuck waiting on essentials. When parents need margin to rest or reconnect, Foster Parent Night Out (sometimes offered as a Day Out) provides safe, vetted childcare at a local church so families can recharge without worry.
For ongoing guidance, Family Help West Texas (FamilyHelpWTX.org) offers a zip code searchable database for free or reduced cost services. And don’t underestimate the steady help of your local church body. Pastors, small groups, and care teams can mobilize meal trains, mentoring, prayer, and practical service—becoming the circle that holds a family together when the pace gets intense.
If you’re sensing a nudge, take one simple step: get information. Clarity builds courage, and a child’s future may be on the other side of your “yes.”
