Current Adoption & Foster Care Clients
Previous Adoption & Foster Carer Clients
American Foster Care Resources, Inc. (2013-2018)
American Foster Care Resources, Inc., was founded in 1983 and was a nonprofit, tax-exempt corporation dedicated to producing informational and educational resources for and about family foster care. This project includes interactive slide shows and e-commerce solutions.
We were contacted by Jacob in 2007 to help him maintain his HTML website. In 2014, Jacob had Simply Web Services modernize his website to a new design using WordPress and WooCommerce. Simply Web Services provided Web Design and Development, E-Commerce Solutions, Graphic Design, Consulting, and Web Site Hosting.
In 2018, Jacob closed the business entirely.
Chris & Laura Church (2009-2010)
Web Design – Then vs. Now
This Project Predates WordPress and Modern Frameworks
Chris and Laura Church lived in the National Capital Region (Washington, DC area). They were a young couple looking to adopt a child. They came up with the idea of a website so parents could get to know Chris and Laura a bit and hope that they would consider them for their adoption plans.
This is a personal website for a local couple seeking adoption. Simply Web Services also did an 18-page color book for Chris and Laura.
Amazingly, Chris and Laura were actually able to conceive their child naturally and no longer required this website.
Fair Winds Group Home (2006-2018)
Web Design – Then vs. Now
This Project Predates WordPress and Modern Frameworks
Fair Winds Group Home was a group home for at-risk teens. At Fair Winds, discharge planning begins at intake. Their philosophy of care was to provide intensive therapeutic and special education services that would result in a sustainable family placement at discharge.
Julie contacted us in 2006 to design a website for one of the group homes that they operate in Spotsylvania County, Virginia.
Fair Winds was hosted and maintained by Simply Web Services until it closed in 2018.
Murphy Homes (2013-2016)
Murphy Homes was a community-based group home (level B) for boys ages 9 to 14 who needed services to gain the competency and confidence to succeed in a family setting.
This is a sister group home to Fair Winds Group Home.
Julie contacted us in 2013 to design a website for another one of the group homes that she operates in Fredericksburg, Virginia.
Murphy Homes was hosted and maintained by Simply Web Services until it closed in 2016.
