Safe Families was launched with the intent to renew the lost art of biblical hospitality. With over 50,000 hostings in the US alone (not counting the UK, Canada, and now Hong Kong), we are witnessing an extraordinary movement of care as families join this wave of hospitality by using their homes to protect children and support parents.
