Project Zero connection events are great opportunities for waiting kids and open and approved waiting families to come together in a non-threatening, fun environment to interact and get to know each other. Every month, Project Zero hosts at least one connection event with the sole purpose of building hope in waiting kids and ultimately bringing them together with the right forever family.
These events are also a great time for volunteers to join us on the 'road to zero' and for individuals, businesses and churches to use their areas of expertise to pour into the lives of waiting kids!

Join Project Zero's mission to raise awareness about adoption, build hope in kids and teens waiting in foster care to be adopted and connect forever families in Arkansas. Our goal is simple, to fight for those children and advocate for them to find the right forever family, until there are zero waiting children in Arkansas. In the state of Arkansas alone, there are nearly 3,900 kids waiting in foster care. Through no fault of their own, 228 of those children and teens have had their parental rights terminated and are waiting to be adopted.We believe there are no unwanted children, just unfound families and we are passionate about finding them.
