About The Sanctuary Foster Care Services

The Sanctuary Foster Care Services is a Houston-based 501(c)(3) child-placing agency (EIN 82-5440662) that was established in 2018 and is licensed with the State of Texas. The organization recruits, trains, licenses, and supports foster families using trauma-informed approaches, with a stated commitment to permanence and healing for children from hard places. The agency operates a wraparound service model centered on Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI), offering 24/7 crisis intervention, in-home and clinic-based therapy, respite and alternative care, and ongoing caregiver support. In the last several years it has expanded operations beyond its Clear Lake office to a Fort Bend presence and published a 2024 annual report and tax filings reflecting growth in program activity and revenues.
