When children are removed from their homes out of concern for their safety, they are usually brought to a child welfare services office to await placement. This wait can range from a few hours to several days. Isaiah 117 provides a comforting home where these children instead can be brought to wait—a place that is safe with friendly and loving volunteers who provide clean clothes, smiles, toys, and snuggly blankets. This space allows children to receive the comfort and care they need while child welfare staff can do the necessary paperwork and identify a good placement.
