the mission

Our mission is to provide holistic support to foster families, including foster parents, biological, foster, and adopted children, recognizing that the entire family unit plays a vital role in successful foster care.

the vision

Bridge Family Ministries is a faith-based nonprofit organization dedicated to meeting the ever-changing needs of the foster care community in Middle Tennessee. We aim to fill the greatest need: consistent community support. Through encouragement, prayer, meals, childcare, respite care, support groups, and fellowship, we create opportunities for stable, lasting relationships to flourish. Our desire is to build a strong, loving community where foster families can thrive without fear of burnout or isolation. By partnering with us, you will help ensure these families receive the consistent support they need to care for children in crisis and build lasting connections that transform lives. With the support and partnership of local community, we can help provide for the needs of foster families in Rutherford County and surrounding areas.  By bridging the gap, we make it known to each foster child and family that they are not alone but they are seen, heard and loved. We strive to support parents and remind them they are well-equipped to continue with selfless work with children in need. They have the resources and connections they need to have safe, healthy and happy homes.

“As I have loved you, so you must love one another.”

—John 13:34
