We’re pleased to partner with Elkhart 311, the City of Elkhart’s non-emergency service that helps residents report everyday concerns such as potholes, graffiti, and neighborhood maintenance issues. Accessible through the MyElkhart311 app or by dialing 311, the service connects community members directly with city departments to help keep Elkhart running smoothly.
We’re also excited to welcome Benchmark Family Services, an organization dedicated to finding caring and supportive foster homes for children in need. Their team works closely with foster families throughout the process, offering guidance, transparency, and resources every step of the way. Whether you’re ready to become a foster parent or simply want to learn more, Benchmark Family Services is here to support and inform families as they explore the journey of foster care.
