Benchmark Family Services, Inc. services children who have been removed from their homes by the Department of Children’s Services (DCS) due to neglect, physical, sexual, and/or emotional abuse suffered in their biological home. Most of the children served by Benchmark are experiencing behavioral, emotional, and/or mental health problems as a result of being abused or neglected and receive therapy either on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. Additionally, some children are under the care of a psychiatrist and receive medications to manage their mental health needs. Why Choose Benchmark? Benchmark provides strong and consistent support to our foster care families. We provide:
Each foster care family with weekly contact with their case manager, including a minimum of two home visits per month
24 hour/7 day a week emergency cell phone access to a case manager in the event of a crisis
Respite care for foster children when needed
Premium financial compensation to support the needs of youth placed in the home

This week, we are thrilled to celebrate the Fenstermacher foster family as they officially adopted two beautiful sisters into their forever home! 🥰🥰🥰

What began as foster care became forever family. This is such a powerful reminder of the life-changing impact foster families make every single day. The Fenstermachers opened their hearts and home, and now these girls have the permanency, love, and stability every child deserves.

Congratulations to the Fenstermacher family on this incredible journey! We are honored to have been part of your journey and grateful for the difference you continue to make.

Here is a great way to support children in our community if you aren't able to foster at this time.

Some children in our community walk into courtrooms carrying far more than a stuffed animal.

They carry confusion. Fear. Trauma. Uncertainty about where they’ll sleep, who will show up for them, and what happens next.

That’s why CASA volunteers matter.

A CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) is often the one consistent adult making sure a child’s voice is heard and their best interests stay at the center of every decision.

No child should have to face the court system feeling alone.

If you’ve ever wondered whether one caring adult can make a difference in a child’s life, the answer is yes. Every single day. 💙
