On March 26th, the Foster Angels of South Texas proudly introduced the Heart Gallery of South Texas. This initiative, supported by state and local leaders, including Texas First Lady Cecilia Abbott, spans areas from Corpus Christi to Laredo and the Rio Grande Valley. It aims to promote the adoption of children in foster care, particularly those who often wait longer, such as older children, siblings, and those with significant medical needs. Funded by the Texas Legislature and collaborated with the Steve Hicks School of Social Work and the Texas Center for Child and Family Studies, this program is part of a statewide effort to improve adoption outcomes and engage the community in supporting foster children awaiting adoption.
