Single Source Continuum Contractor

Texas Department of Family and Protective Services (DFPS) has awarded 4Kids4Families, a division of Arrow Child & Family Ministries, the contract to become the Single Source Continuum Contractor (SSCC) for the Piney Woods area of Texas DFPS Region 4. Beginning March 1st 4Kids4Families will work with DFPS to transition the Texas child welfare system from a statewide, “one size fits all” approach to a community-based model designed to meet the individual and unique needs of children, youth, and families at the local level. “4Kids4Families is honored to serve alongside the Piney Woods region that so passionately cares for their children and will do so with innovation and creativity to bring a transformational difference and the best outcomes for kids,” Scott Lundy, CEO, Arrow.

Arrow, a Christian provider, assists children and youth with complex trauma of all types. Thousands of children and families benefit every year with the dedication of staff, donors, and volunteers across two states. Arrow is built on the belief that engaging community stakeholders and fortifying a committed network of providers produces the best outcomes for everyone involved. Arrow leads the way in providing foster care services, kinship care, residential treatment programs, educational services for children with special needs, durable medical equipment services, and family-based treatment programs for children with behavioral and emotional needs.
