Buckner Children and Family Services McAllen

Buckner Children and Family Services McAllen is a ministry located at 5425 North McColl Road in McAllen, Texas, United States. Our mission is to serve vulnerable children and families in the Rio Grande Valley by providing resources and support to protect children, strengthen families, and transform generations.

The Varlack family, for example, opened their home to children in need through Buckner Foster Care and Adoption, showing love, encouragement, and faith. Mario, a single father living in poor conditions, found support through counseling and classes at the Buckner Family Hope Center. Anjali and Adan were able to qualify for a new home and change their family's trajectory through Buckner Healthy Housing and Family Hope Center courses.

We offer resources and training for those interested in becoming a foster or adoptive family for children referred through the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services. Buckner Rio Grande Children's Home provides campus foster homes for children in state custody who have experienced abuse, neglect, or abandonment.

Our programs focus on family assistance, education, financial empowerment, child and youth development, and spiritual enrichment. The Buckner Family and Youth Success program in the Rio Grande Valley helps children and families in several counties, funded by the Texas DFPS.
