Shepherds Home Inc

The Shepherd’s Home serves publicly or privately placed children of all ages. Our trained and compassionate team values each child, offers unconditional love, and encourages in each child a sense of self-worth. As a result, we play a part in breaking the cycle of abuse and neglect.

In March of 1998, the Shepherd’s Home opened its doors to its first resident and before long, the Home was at capacity. With the generous financial support of donors and the commitment of talented staff and volunteers, the Shepherd’s Home has provided hope for countless Idaho children and families.

Currently, there are approximately 1350 Idaho children in foster care, from infants to teenagers. Some only need temporary foster homes and are eventually able to return to their birth families, while others will recieve love and care until they are able to live firmly on their own.   Although our focus is based mainly on children in the Northwest area of Idaho, we have provided children from all over the U.S. with a stable, loving home and plan to do so as long as we are in operation. As a non-profit, we rely heavily on donations and support from individuals in the community and surrounding areas to continue our goal of providing a safe and structured family environment for children in need.
