We’re dramatically improving the experiences and outcomes for kids in foster care.
We have 1 mission: FAMILY
We Target 2 Profound Problems
We Offer 3 Signature Solutions
Our I Belong Project™ video storytelling initiative recruits families for adoption-eligible kids in foster care. It is the largest, most effective program of its kind. As it brings children’s powerful stories to life, it also inspires thousands of new people each year to get engaged engage foster care.
Our Foster Friendly
Communities movement and App seek to retain foster families by engaging the communities where they live and work — activating businesses, faith communities, nonprofits and elected officials to appreciate and support their important work.
We raise awareness of foster care to recruit foster and adoptive families and accompany them on their journeys by providing information and inspiration to help them take their next step. Our Foster Friendly Podcast and FosterCon webinars are just two of our well-recognized resources.
