ABCS is a faith-based, non-profit social service ministry that serves the full spectrum of Arizona families, from unborn babies to seniors.
Arizona Baptist Children’s Services & Family Ministries (ABCS) was founded in 1960 by Arizona Southern Baptists as a home for displaced children. Over 60 years later, we have seven ministries with one mission: to provide hope and care to hurting children and families through Christ-centered ministries. ABCS is a faith-based, non-profit social service ministry that serves the full spectrum of Arizona families, from unborn babies to seniors.
Families today face a multitude of stressors and challenges that can sometimes be overwhelming. ABCS ministries are focused on providing practical help to meet those needs. Our goal is to share the love of Christ with each person we come in contact with, as evangelism is the common thread of our ministries.
We strive to live by the ABCS Core Values:
Honor God in all we do.
Build relationships through trust and respect.
Be a good steward of what we have been given.
Do everything with excellence.

JoAnne is the best....
I trust these people fully and would definitely recommend them. Worked with them for multiple years and always felt heard and appreciated.

The most unorganized company
One of the people made my 3yr old sit backwards in the car seat with her feet squished up against her body. Because she did not know how to use the car seat the right way
They had publicly humiliated me.
Made unnecessary seens in front of my children
They dont take accountability of the faults
And I've been lied to.
