Kinship Resource Fair
2026-06-27 11:00 - 14:00 | HQ Plaza, 5307 W Loop 289, Lubbock, TX, 79414
Are you raising a relative’s child or considering becoming a kinship caregiver? Join us for a free Kinship Resource Fair designed to connect local kinship families with valuable resources and support available in our community.
Families will have the opportunity to meet with local organizations, nonprofits, and service providers that offer assistance for caregivers and children. Representatives from child placing agencies will also be available to share information about becoming a licensed kinship caregiver and the additional support, advocacy, training, and resources that may be available through the licensing process.
Whether you are already caring for a relative’s child or simply exploring your options, this event is a great opportunity to learn about services, ask questions, and build connections with others who understand the kinship caregiving journey.
Lunch will be provided.
We look forward to seeing you there!
