Organization Name Better Together Contact Name Phone Email

Mellissa Foster 904-556-1230 [email protected]


Better Together is a nonprofit founded on the belief that loving parents should not lose children because of financial challenges or lack of resources. These challenges can be overcome with the right support system in place. Better Together implements two highly successful programs – Better Families and Better Jobs – that provide a powerful platform for people who are ready to enact positive change. Better Together is an alternative to foster care that empowers parents to keep their families together, and Better Jobs addresses the root of the problem, connecting people to stable work that restores their dignity. Both programs are 100% privately funded and community driven, implemented by faith-based organizations and a caring volunteer force. Here’s how it works: When parents fall into crisis, fully screened and trained volunteers host children in their homes while mentoring parents toward stability. This includes help with finding a job, securing housing, childcare, treatment and more.

Website Bettertogetherus.org





Host Family- Open their homes to children from families in crisis, provide a safe and loving home while their parents resolve short-term issues.

Family Mentor-Serve in a mentoring role to connect with biological families; assisting with and addressing the circumstances that led to their crisis.

Family Advocate- Facilitate the relationship between the biological and volunteer Better Family during a placement while ensuring the wellbeing of the child(ren).

Resource & Respite- Support the needs of host families in various ways. Provide diapers, formula, clothing, and other children’s items. Volunteer professional services, or temporary respite.
