Hi all,
This blog is the brochure that families can receive when they leave a baby with us at Kasensa. We want families to know and understand that the best place for their baby is with their own family and that we are so willing to help the family to get the baby back as soon as they can. We can assist by putting baby on milk program or by supplying mealie meal or ....I've been trying to post photos, but due to our slow connection, they are not uploading. Will keep trying!
God places the lonely in families - Psalm 68:6
ZMF-C recognizes the stress that your family is
experiencing at this time and we pray for your healing. We desire to be sensitive to the needs of your family
and want to assist you with the wisdom that only God can provide.
Kasensa staff recognizes that sometimes residential
orphan care is needed as a temporary response for infants who have no other means of support.
The goal of the temporary, emergency orphan care at Kasensa, is to care for the infant only for a short
period of time while the family prepares itself for the baby to return home.
ZMF-C believes that it is in the best interest of the infant’s development to be raised in the most natural, nurturing environment - the family. Research has
proven that infants raised in family environments develop better emotionally, socially and physically compared to those who stay for extended time in orphan care homes.
ZMF-C desires the best for the infant and the family. Therefore, ZMF-C policy requires that all families visit their “baby” monthly and that discharge planning be discussed at each visit.
ZMF-C will do at least one home visit. We encourage family members to visit their baby overnight from time to time to assist with
family-baby bonding.
At time of discharge at least one family member must be prepared to spend 3 nights at Kasensa to assist with bonding.
ZMF-C is open to discussing other ways to assist families so that baby can return to live with family as soon as possible.
Please read ZMF-C vision, mission and values as well as Kasensa orphan care program description.

Sue, thanks for posting the brochure. It helps to have the purpose and goals of Kesensa articulated, not just for the families of the children you serve, but also for donors. We continue to pray for you as you serve God in Zambia. ~Marti
