Texas Baptist Homes for Children – Waxahachie

We love TBHC we were previously foster parents for them. All of the staff make you feel like you are right where God wants you to be

This is a Non Christian Agency! We have been with them two years and I will tell you that upper management doesn’t care about any of there individuals. We adopted a 21 month old and not 1 upper management said congrats or anything. We moved on campus and right away started having bites on us. We’re not sure where they were coming from. So we moved into another house and it got worse. Come to find out it was bed bugs! So they treated the house three times. Each time we had to leave for a night or two, board our dogs at our own cost. So now we got so fed up we purchased a house and gave notice. Woke up one morning and my son who is 21 months old had bites lol over him which we took pictures and notes and dated. Sent all this information to upper management and no response. Finally I followed up with maintenance and they said in a week they would review the issues. I told them I was going to lose over $15000 worth of furniture and requested $2500 for all of the stuff we are losing. They said they will have a meeting on Wednesday. Well here it is Tuesday and they denied my request. Very unprofessional and don’t care about anything but the next family to come into the house and bring them money. I would not recommend this agency to anyone if you are going to live on campus. Randy Odom (Vice President) doesn’t respond to emails at all. Jason Curry President, puts everything on other people. I will be taking this up with the trustees and anyone else I know. The only people that are worth anything are the case manages but even they don’t stay long with them. These people allowed a 21 month old to get bit nightly and not respond to my emails about helping us after the 3rd treatment which they promise would fix the issue. Well no it didn’t. My kid has to suffer along with a bunch of other kids. It’s a shame that all the Christian stuff in front of people is exactly that “A Front”. Please do yourself a favor and find an agency that really goes out of their way to help you.

My husband was raised at the Home. It was a wonderful caring and loving environment. He is the man he is today because of the people and Farley Baptist church. God bless all that are Associated with the home. We will be having our homecoming June the 9th looking forward to seeing all the x's and everyone at the Home. Bridget Pickard
