Core offering

Crossroads NOLA recruits, trains, and supports foster families in Louisiana through a faith-based network of local churches, equipping caregivers with Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI) trauma-informed care training. As an official KPICD Ambassador Organization, the nonprofit also delivers TBRI Practitioner Training and ongoing cohort support for child welfare professionals, channeling all programming toward placing Louisiana's children in foster care into safe, connected families.

Product overview

Crossroads NOLA is a nonprofit organization operating as a single integrated service rather than a platform architecture. The core offering consists of foster family recruitment from local churches, supported by TBRI (Trust-Based Relational Intervention) training programs and ongoing family support services. Related programs include church partnership facilitation, volunteer coordination (including meal provision and supply donations via DoorDash and Amazon Wishlist), and multiple fundraising channels (general donations, Women's Collective giving circles, and Home Team monthly donor program). All programs work together toward the mission of connecting children in foster care to safe, connected families.

Direct peers

• Promise686: Faith-based nonprofit mobilizing churches to support foster and adoptive families through wraparound care. Direct peer given its church-partner model for foster family recruitment, training, and ongoing support — the same core GTM as Crossroads.
• Help One Child: Faith-based nonprofit recruiting and supporting foster and adoptive families, particularly through church partnerships. Comparable mission, target population, and community-led recruitment approach.
• The Forgotten Initiative: Church-engagement focused nonprofit that mobilizes congregations to serve foster families through volunteering and support. Comparable church-network GTM and foster family wraparound services.
• Together We Rise: National nonprofit focused on improving the foster care experience for children through donations, advocacy, and direct support. Highly comparable to Crossroads in mission (foster care support), funding model (donor-funded), and wraparound service delivery.
• Show Hope: Faith-based nonprofit supporting adoption and foster care through financial grants, education, and care. Comparable to Crossroads in faith-driven recruitment of foster/adoptive families, donor-funded model, and trauma-informed care emphasis.

Broad incumbents

• Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption: National nonprofit focused on foster care adoption, including Wendy's Wonderful Kids program recruiting foster/adoptive families. Comparable donor-funded mission around finding permanent homes for foster children.
• CASA (National Court Appointed Special Advocate Association): Large national nonprofit training and supporting court-appointed volunteers who advocate for children in foster care. Comparable mission (foster child welfare support), volunteer-driven model, and nonprofit funding structure, though operating at much larger national scale.
• Embrella (formerly Olive Crest): Multi-state nonprofit providing foster care, adoption, and family preservation programming. Broader incumbent offering comparable services — foster family recruitment, training, and trauma-informed care — at greater geographic scale.

Others

• Karyn Purvis Institute of Child Development (KPICD): Developer of the TBRI methodology and licensor of Crossroads' Ambassador status. Listed as a peer/ecosystem partner given the foundational role TBRI plays in Crossroads' differentiated training offering — not a competitor but the upstream methodology owner.

Emerging players

• Care Portal: Technology platform connecting child welfare agencies with local churches and volunteers to meet tangible needs of foster families and children. Comparable faith-driven foster care wraparound support, with a tech-enabled delivery model.
