Foster America is an organization dedicated to transforming the nation's child welfare system by working alongside communities and local governments to create a more equitable and supportive environment for families. Their mission is to prevent the separation of families by increasing support and access to necessary resources, thereby promoting family well-being. Foster America focuses on driving innovation, developing changemakers, and disseminating knowledge to reshape child welfare practices. They collaborate with government partners, nonprofits, and community leaders to co-design solutions and identify funding opportunities that support family needs proactively. Foster America envisions a future where every family thrives, and fewer children enter the foster care system.
