Our Mission


Connecting Children with Families and Keeping Families Connected

Jesus Christ set forth the example of a good shepherd, one who watches over, cares for and guides those in need. It is the work of Good Shepherd Children & Family Services to keep the children in our care safe, to help them heal, to provide them the skills for self care and connect them with those who will provide support throughout their lives.

Real Life Stories of Our Kids
Real Life Stories
Children and teens in foster youth are often spoken of in terms of statistics – 10,000 Missouri kids in foster care, the number aging out each year, those who are likely to be homeless or pregnant after leaving foster care, etc. – but they are real, live, one-of-a-kind kids with real stories to tell. In foster homes throughout our community and here at Good Shepherd, foster youth are pursuing education, getting jobs, learning how to be responsible adults … all as they prepare to become members of permanent, safe and loving families.

Charitable Tax Credits are Here!

 Think you can’t benefit by tax credits or that it’s too complicated? Think again! Click here to learn more.

You may think that claiming your charitable donations on your tax returns is good enough.  It is.  Good enough.  Tax credits are even better because they give you an added 50% in addition to your typical charitable deduction!

Good Shepherd offers charitable tax credits made available by the State of Missouri.  Tax credits are a triple-win benefit!  They encourage your philanthropic support of the Good Shepherd mission to assist foster youth.  They help Missouri develop and maintain good healthy communities.  And, they reward you for your generosity.
