  • About Us

    Friends of Children is fully dedicated to improving the lives of children and young adults impacted by foster care or juvenile justice involvement. Our relationships with young people connect us to their stories and ground us in their perspectives.

    We speak the truth on behalf of children, no matter how difficult it is to hear. We are champions of their best interests and advocate for the rights and dignity of children in and aging out of foster care. We recognize the whole child. Friends of Children commits to changing the course of their lives. Their future and our community’s legacy depend on it.
