Foster Care Advocacy Youth Programming Community Services

About

Mission Statement: Our mission is to empower teens in foster care in Stark County, Ohio, by providing them with the support, resources, and life skills necessary to transition into independent living. We strive to create a nurturing, group home environment where these young individuals can develop resilience, self-sufficiency, and a sense of belonging.

Overview

In Stark County, approximately 400 children are living in the foster care system, with nearly a quarter in permanent custody and eligible for adoption. Many of these children are teens who risk aging out of the system without finding a permanent family. Our organization is dedicated to addressing this critical need by offering a comprehensive group home program designed to prepare these teens for independent adulthood.
