Who We Are
Our Model
We focus on keeping children in families wherever possible, and providing loving care for them in small family-style homes, only when absolutely necessary.
Our Story
TST has grown out of the tireless work of so many, in the years since founder Bekka Ross Russell arrived in 2010 and met Mama Pendo (Martha Ayo).
Our Staff
All that we do would not be possible without our wonderful team of over 50 staff. From drivers to caregivers, social workers to accountants – our staff are the lifeblood of The Small Things.
