TANL House Groundbreaking Ceremony

New Horizons United Methodist Church 611 E. 53rd St., Anderson

Everyone is invited to come celebrate! Join us for the TANL House Groundbreaking Ceremony on Saturday, October 21st @ 12:30 PM! This is an opportunity to show your support for TANL House as we build a safe, welcoming environment for children and youth awaiting foster placement.
About TANL House
Though many events may lead up to an emergency removal of a child from their caregiver, the moment itself usually happens fast. For this reason, when a child or teen is removed, they can sit and wait for hours or even overnight in the DCS office while a suitable foster or kinship family is found. Imagine how it would feel to be picked up unexpectedly from your home, school, or a hospital and have to wait in an office to find out where you're going to live.
We can make this hard day a little easier by showing kids they are loved and creating a place where their needs are met. At the TANL House, they can eat a home-cooked meal, play with toys, talk to a compassionate volunteer, or just zone out on a comfy couch. The TANL House is not yet operational, but construction is progressing quickly and we hope to open the doors in 2024.
To learn more about the TANL House and ways you can walk alongside us to change how foster care begins for kids in Indiana, reach out to us, we'd love to connect with you
