Jonathan’s Place
In
May 1991, a 3-day-old drug-addicted newborn came to live
with Lisa Matthews, founder of Kid Net Foundation. He had
no name on his birth certificate, and his mother was unable
to care for him. He was given the name Jonathan by Ms. Matthews
and her two sons. Jonathan was adopted within a short time
by a wonderful loving couple who live in the Dallas area.
Today, he is a healthy, happy 11-year-old. The foundation's
first major project, Jonathan's Place, is named in his honor.
Jonathan’s Place
was the first licensed foster group home in Texas for drug-addicted
babies and small children. We have since expanded our mission
and now provide emergency residential care services to abused,
abandoned and neglected children.
The facility was created
and is operated by the Kid Net Foundation, a non profit
organization founded in 1991 by Dallas resident Lisa Matthews
and Phil Matteis to provide specialized services and
housing to at-risk children in Dallas County and throughout
the state.
