CEO Scott Lundy and CDO Larissa Potiomkin had the distinct honor of meeting the First Lady of Texas, Cecelia Abbott, in Tyler.  

Together, they demonstrated their shared commitment to supporting the Heart Gallery of East Texas, an initiative dedicated to helping children in foster care find loving, permanent homes.  

Their meeting underscores the continued efforts to advocate for these children and raise awareness about the importance of adoption and community involvement. 

Our Kinship Team recently hosted a memorable camp for local kinship families at Camp4All in Burton, Texas.  

The families enjoyed a fun-filled day, participating in a variety of engaging activities and games that fostered teamwork and connection.  

To further enhance the experience, each family was gifted a swag bag filled with snacks, toys, and other goodies. It was a wonderful opportunity to celebrate and support kinship families while creating lasting memories in a joyful and supportive environment 

On Saturday, September 14, 2024, Arrow Child & Family Ministries was honored to participate in the annual Essex Day Street Festival in Baltimore, Maryland. The vibrant and diverse Essex community provided an excellent opportunity to engage with families, share information about our programs, and celebrate the rich culture of the area.

Representatives from our Treatment Foster Care program were on hand to connect with families interested in becoming foster parents and to provide insight into the services offered by Arrow Community Services. Students from The Arrow Center for Education Schools were thrilled to see their school represented, adding to the excitement of the day.

We extend our sincere gratitude to Jennifer Pritchard for her outstanding efforts in organizing Arrow’s participation, and to our dedicated staff who contributed from setup to breakdown. Arrow Child & Family Ministries remains committed to making a positive impact in communities like Essex, and we look forward to continuing our work in fostering connections and supporting families.
