Adopt-A-Family Program
Each year, we assist thousands of families in our foster programs, particularly kinship homes, which are relative placements for children both in and out of the formal child welfare system. The emotional and financial support needed for these children, often affected by trauma, is significant. Expenses include childcare, furniture, clothing, food, and medical costs. Unlicensed homes have limited access to financial aid, and those outside the DCS system face even fewer resources. Our goal is to help families navigate these systems to secure the resources needed for stable, nurturing households.
