This book takes readers on a journey that spans three decades and five continents, describing the work of SFAC to keep children in their families and communities or to find safe alternatives where this is not possible. We meet judges and social workers, missionaries and aid workers, the children and families themselves. The author asks tough questions, such as: Would you want your children in a safe family or in an institution? Would you want them to belong to something or to someone? He offers solutions for children separated from their families in widely different societies, from the hills of Myanmar to the sprawling cities of Brazil. The key is always the best interests of the child. The book offers practical wisdom and a hope for the future.
