What If Every Child in Iowa’s Foster Care System Had a Seat at a Table?

Imagine the Church rising with bold, joyful calling — equipping families, surrounding them with community, and welcoming children in foster care who long for stability and love.

The Table Project calls and equips Christian families for this mission.

Through a spiritually grounded cohort, families discern God’s call, receive biblical and technical training, grow in Christian community, and complete all of Iowa’s pre-licensure training requirements.

In Iowa today, children in foster care are waiting for homes shaped by Christ’s love and grounded in the strength of the local church.

This is more than education.

It’s discipleship. It’s community. It’s mission.

Iowa’s children need homes now.

The Table Project equips workers for the mission.

Iowa’s churches are ready.
