All Because Someone Said Yes

We are overjoyed to celebrate Johnathan Walter Betker, who officially joined the Betker-Heiligenberg family on 11/26/2025—just in time for Thanksgiving!

Johnathan came home from the hospital at just 2 days old, and after nearly two years in foster care, he was fortunate to experience the love and stability of one home. Surrounded by his siblings and a house full of laughter, he is now officially one of their own.

Here’s to all the giggles, bedtime stories and sibling adventures spent with family that now belong to Johnathan.

Justin and Elizabeth are ready to adopt!

"We are a loving, connected and faith-filled family hoping to welcome a second child into our family. After meeting at church in 2020 we quickly knew that we had met 'the one' and married in June 2021. We enjoy coffee dates, family walks, growing our little homestead and spending time with family and friends. From quiet moments to shared laughter believe the simple rhythms of family life are where love grows strongest."

Learn more about this family by calling the office at 330-928-0044 or visiting their profile on our website on the "our adoptive families" button!

💚 Countdown to 2026 • 10 Days of Our Favorite Things • #3

This year, we celebrated two incredible ways to honor dedication and potential:

Community Advocate Award: Voted on by CFK staff, this award recognizes standout social workers and county employees who go above and beyond in child welfare. Their hard work and commitment make a lasting difference for the families we serve. Help us congratulate our 2025 recipient: Jodi Kidder!

Fostering Futures Fund Grant: Established in 2022 in honor of Pat Ameling’s retirement, this annual grant supports a young adult connected to CFK foster care, helping them invest in their future and pursue their goals and dreams. Give a hand for our 2025 recipient: Abbigale!

These awards remind us how impactful recognition and support can be—for the amazing adults working in child welfare and the youth blazing their own paths.
