Adoption & Foster Care

Our mission is to help children and their families build permanent, positive change. Each year, our community-based programs and residences meet the needs of more than 15,000 diverse youngsters and family members. These children are often society’s most vulnerable, victims of trauma, violence or shattered family lives.

We ensure their emotional, social, educational and physical well- being from birth to age 26 through a dedicated team of professionals and a wide range of critical services. As a result, disadvantaged kids have safe surroundings, loving relationships and a secure path toward tomorrow.

    If we want to live in a world with some semblance of equality of outcome, we must do so much more to support equality of opportunity... This charity supports 12,000 children every year toward that goal!
