Assuring Love Child Placement Agency was started by two individuals, Will Onyebuchi and Lyle Matthis with over 35 years of total past experience with foster care in Texas, either as foster parents, foster parent trainer, case manager, and/or CPS caseworker.

The established primary purpose of the organization is to provide services and support to children and families affected by abuse, exploitation, and neglect. Our plan is to provide caring, quality services to address emotional and physical trauma, educational and social development to help restore families as healthy, safe and productive units.

The agency is established in Texas as a non-profit 501(c)3 organization, licensed, contracted and funded by Texas Department of Family and Protective Services (TDFPS).
