WELCOME
Covenant Christian's Children’s Homes of Texas (CCCHOT) seeks to partner with others in our community to make a difference serving foster families throughout Texas. CCCHOT focuses on providing holistic, nurturing and structured homes for children to begin healing from abuse or abandonment.
Responding to the call to love our neighbors, we seek to strengthen our community by connecting children in need with loving, highly skilled foster and adoptive parents who are deeply committed to cultivating strong character in our children. When home becomes a safe place where love is unconditional, children can shift their focus from surviving to thriving.

President Sets in Motion National Adoption Month
President Barack Obama opened National Adoption Month by issuing a proclamation emphasizing that a home and loving family is one of life's most cherished gifts. In his statement he highlighted the benefits adoption provides for the children and their adoptive parents. The proclamation also celebrates the adoptive parents who give so much to these youth. In addition to the Affordable Care Act which improves the Adoption Tax Credit, President Obama's Administration made available the Adoption Incentives program in order to increase the number of children adopted from the foster care system. President Obama identified resources in his proclamation such as AdoptUsKids, which is a Department of Health and Human Services project that supports states with technical assistance and training in support of adoption. President Obama ended his statement with a call for all Americans to show tribute this month by lending a hand to help find homes for every child in need and to honor the families who care for them. |
