LAKE CHARLES REGION

Thank you for visiting the Louisiana Heart Gallery website where we believe every child deserves a loving family to call their own.
There is a great need for parents willing to be licensed foster parents, able to provide a temporary home for children needing a stable, loving environment. There is also a need for parents wanting to adopt children that are legally available to be adopted. 
If you are interested in fostering temporarily, or fostering to adopt, you will first need to become a Certified Foster Parent and will begin the process by taking one of the classes listed below.
For more information, call (337) 491-2470

Meet Jordan! Like most boys his age, Jordan loves playing video games. However, Jordan is not content being playing games alone, as he is quite the social butterfly. Jordan loves school because it is the place where he can gather with his buddies and talk about TV shows and video games. According to Jordan’s teachers, he is focused in school when it comes to completing school work and homework assignments, as reflected in his grades. Jordan performs above average in most of his subjects, but can sometimes need redirecting when it comes to maintaining his academic success.

Though Jordan enjoys being outdoors, and has the energy to potentially be a good sportsman, he does not name any sport as one of his favorite things to do in his spare time.

Fabian prefers sitting on a couch or chair anywhere if in front of him is some kind of video game device for him to play with. Despite having the ability to socialize with peers, Fabian chooses to spend all of his free time engaged in playing video games or learning new techniques on any electronic device.
