charity established by a group of very caring and concerned community leaders to address the severe shortage of foster homes in Circuit 1; Okaloosa, Walton, Santa Rosa and Escam- bia counties. Their dream was to build a Children’s Neigh- borhood to care for the abused, neglected and abandoned children. The dream is now a reality. In 2008, the Susanna Wesley Emergency Shelter and Blessings House Family Foster Home opened to provide homes and keep brothers and sisters together. In 2009, the Dugas Family Foundation Neighborhood Center and the Kids’ Clubhouse Recreation Center opened. Sue Sue’s Cot- tage Family Foster Home and Opportunity Home Teen Transi- tion opened.
