Continuum of Care
In addition to its residential treatment programs, Lutheran Social Services also provides foster care and adoption services. LSS works with the children as they move toward reunification with their families, less restrictive foster care placements or adoption.

Spiritual Care
The girls at New Life are given the opportunity to grow spiritually. If they choose, they may attend Bible studies and worship services led by volunteers. If you would like to help with spiritual care, please call New Life at (830) 964-4390 or email NewLifeVolunteer@lsss.org.
