March 4th, 2024 No comments

Have you been thinking about becoming a foster parent? Positively changing the life of a child and their family? If so, please contact COBYS Family Services to learn more about foster care in Lancaster and nearby communities and how you could provide a safe and loving home for children who need them.

Your first step is to contact COBYS to receive details about our foster care and adoption services, followed by attending a newly designed two-part information session with a pre-recorded webinar followed by live content. We offer convenient options for in-person and virtual gatherings.
Our information sessions provide an introduction to the roles, expectations, and approval process for COBYS resource families. Questions are encouraged as you discern if foster care and adoption through foster care is right for you. The sessions are free and place no obligation on those attending. The next 1.5 hour, live information sessions are scheduled for: March 12th, 2024 (in person) or March 28th, 2024 (held virtually). These sessions begin at 6:00 p.m.

To learn more information or begin the information session process, contact Amanda Storrs at 717-656-6580 or careforkids@cobys.org. To learn more about COBYS, or to reach out to us online, go to www.cobys.org.

WIN THE KING’S STRINGS CD!

November 16th, 2012 1 comment

The King’s Strings from Mechanicsburg, PA is a family of musicians that enjoys putting smiles on the faces of its listeners. Since their debut in 2004, they have been bringing those smiles to retirement communities, birthday and anniversary celebrations, fund-raisers, and company Christmas dinners. They have played all over their home state of Pennsylvania, west to Ohio, east to the Chesapeake Bay area and south to Florida. In 2008 they were thrilled to entertain the guests of Pennsylvania’s Governor Ed Rendell at his annual Holiday Open House. This past fall they played the National Anthem for the Harrisburg Senators baseball team.

The King’s Strings will appear at Penn Cinema for a special event on Thursday, November 15th.  The Adoption Coalition of Lancaster County (ACLC) is sponsoring a free Movie Night at Penn Cinema on Thursday, November 15, beginning at 6 p.m. Held in conjunction with National Adoption Awareness Month, the event aims to help raise awareness of the need for foster and adoptive families. Attendees can view one of two recent adoption-themed movies-The Blind Side or Meet the Robinsons.  Click here for all the info!
