OUR GOALS

Children's drawing showing a mom, dad, and children with the sun shining. Family Drawing

Our goal is to keep children in a family setting within their community to eventually reunite them with their natural families or guardians. We believe this can be achieved by providing intensive care and services to the children, their families, and the foster parents who provide day-to-day care.

By focusing on the strengths and needs of the child and family, we can implement community-based services that involve a team of people working collaboratively with the child, their family, and the foster family. This approach enables children and their families to make the necessary changes towards reunification.

However, there are instances where the planned goal for children may be independent living, long-term foster care, or adoption.
