How We Work with Families to Keep Children Safely at Home

Emergency Support

Rapid support that helps prevent foster care caused by poverty.

A temporary crisis of poverty should never separate a child from their family. Peer navigators respond quickly with support for housing, food, transportation, health care, child care, and other basic needs so children can stay safely at home.

Community Healing

Trusted relationships, practical support, and family leadership so families are not alone.

Peer led Family Café gatherings bring families together around a shared meal, conversation, and support. Over time, families build friendships, practical skills, and the community they need to stay steady through hard seasons.

Youth Wellness & Education

A place for teens in kinship care to heal, grow, and belong.

KinRise is a weekly space for teens living with relatives and experiencing poverty. Young people receive counseling, tutoring, life skills, mentoring, and consistent support to stay on track in school and build strong futures.
