About Casa de Esperanza

Provides safety and healing for infants and young children through voluntary foster care and family reunification support at no cost.

Casa de Esperanza serves families across all Houston areas from their base in the Astrodome Area. They meet families wherever works best — at home, community centers, or their office in 77054.

When parents have the tools and support they need, children do better in school and neighborhoods become more stable. Keeping families together strengthens our whole community, and these services are available regardless of income or background.

Families can call Casa de Esperanza directly or get referred through local schools, health centers, or community organizations. The program is flexible and meets families where they are, with all services provided at no cost.
