The Department of Family and Protective Services (DFPS) may be most commonly associated with the act of “taking children away” from unsafe home environments. Unfortunately, this small snapshot of what DFPS does is often portrayed in a negative light in media and movies.
But while the removal of children—whether it be temporary or permanent—is one of the responsibilities of DFPS, there is so much more to what they do. Our latest guest is here to highlight a DFPS division that partners with service-driven organizations to uplift those in need.
Alysa Elliott-Wilson is the regional administrator for Faith-Based and Community Engagement at the Texas DFPS. She specifically oversees Region Six, which includes Houston and the surrounding counties. She plays a critical role in developing partnerships between faith-based organizations and DFPS to provide support services for vulnerable children, families, and adults in Texas.
In this episode, Alysa shares how the Faith-Based and Community Engagement Division mobilizes resources, the importance of coming together to wrap a network of support around vulnerable families, how we can help close the gaps of care in our area, and much more.
