Our Mission
To build equitable opportunity
and lasting self-sufficiency
for deportation-impacted foster care youth
and their families.
We achieve this by keeping siblings together and families connected and by facilitating access to skill development on:
- early financial literacy,
- personalized career development,
- and responsive, long-term
mentor-mentee relationships
Our goal is to equip deportation-impacted
and other foster youth with the support, skills, knowledge, and confidence
needed to thrive independently,
creating a stable and successful future
for themselves, their families,
and the broader foster care community.
