Our mission is to provide support and advocacy for the abused, neglected and abandoned children in the foster care system to ensure they have the resources and enrichment opportunities they need to feel safe, loved and cared for.
VOICES FOR CHILDREN
Our goal is to make the life of a child in the dependency court system a bit better. We want to continue to provide the safest and highest level of care to the vulnerable child victims of abuse, abandonment and neglect. Every child deserves the chance to feel like a kid. We want to make sure each child’s needs are fulfilled. These children have been thrown into the dependency court system through no fault of their own and we want to give them the things they require, right now, to be happy and hopeful!
