About Share Homes
Our History
In 1980, Doug and Deborah Clark moved to Lodi with their two adopted children, Amy and Adam. Having been in youth ministry his whole career, Doug felt led in 1987 to expand his services by starting an Agency for abused children. So Mr. Clark set his sights on helping to break this cycle of abuse by providing good, safe homes for foster children so they could go on with their lives and learn to be productive citizens of society.
After making the decision in January 1987, Mr. Clark launched a non-profit corporation, Share Homes, Inc. which also involved recruiting the first Board of Directors. Finally after spending six months researching, interviewing Executive Directors and Community Care Licensing employees, and personally typing all the application paper work.
On September 1, 1987, Share Homes was officially licensed to do business as a Foster Family Agency with the office headquarters located in downtown Lodi. In 1999 we expanded our services to Sacramento County by establishing a second office in the Elk Grove area. In the year 2002 Share Homes was licensed as an adoption agency. The agency has been providing supervised visitation services to birth families since inception. Counseling services and parenting classes are also provided through our agency.
