WHAT MAKES OUR AGENCY UNIQUE?
Homes in Harmony owners, Jorge and Diana Prado, were foster parents for 9 amazing years. After fostering various children of all ages, and adopting 4 children out of care, the Prado family decided to close their foster home and focus on raising their 6 daughters. Jorge and Diana continued to feel the call to help the hurting children of Laredo, so they decided to open a foster care and adoption agency of their own. Homes in Harmony was born.

Common Myths About Foster Parenting
FACT: Many foster parents never had children of their own. If you are a responsible person willing to commit to providing a safe and loving environment, you are a perfect fit. Not having children of your own does not take away from your ability to be responsible and provide a loving environment to a child who needs it most. All you need is patience and a loving heart.
FACT: While there is some cost for foster care, many state programs will reimburse expenses and/or provide a monthly stipend. Being able to provide a safe and loving environment for someone who needs it most is priceless.
FACT: Foster parents can be single parents. Many single parents have had successful foster homes. Foster parents can also be in committed relationships or married. If married, a couple must have been married for at least 2 years to ensure stability. Anybody who has enough love in their heart can become a foster parent.
FACT: Do you have enough love in your heart to provide healing and support? Then you are a perfect candidate to be a foster parent. Homes in Harmony is an ally of the LGBTQ community. Love is love and our children need all the love that they can get!
FACT: The only age requirement is that you must be at least 21 years old to be a foster parent. Many empty-nesters have found foster parenting to be a rewarding experience. As long as you’re able to bring passion and a heart full of unconditional love, you’re never too old to be a foster parent.
