A World For Children-Dallas office opened in 2000 and serves homes in Region 3, which includes counties all throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth area, in addition to a number of homes in Burleson. They have several families that have been licensed for more than 10 years, as well as a good group of newly licensed families!
The Dallas office prides itself on team collaboration! Each of the families and children that are part of the AWFC Dallas community are supported and managed by the whole staff. They are a close-knit team and spend time together each day to recap issues and help each other out when needed. Families in the area would say the staff are very involved and easily accessible, and they hear from either the Director or Case Manager on a weekly basis. They are always ready to answer a phone call and very quick to handle any issue that may arise. In addition, the AWFC Dallas office is very involved in the local child welfare community and extensively works to collaborate with each of the different foster care systems located in Region 3 in order to stay on top of guidelines and deadlines for each entity. The AWFC Dallas office is especially unique in the fact that they also license and serve a vast majority of the Primary Medical Needs homes and children in the area. They have extensive skill and training in being able to work with this highly needed population of families.
