Every child needs a family.

The loving care that families provide on a daily basis is key to improving the lives of children who have experienced foster care. Casey Family Programs strengthens America’s families by supporting foster parents, kinship caregivers and birth parents.

The nearly 500,000 children in foster care today represent our nation's most vulnerable population. By the year 2020, Casey Family Programs aims to safely reduce this number by 50 percent, providing more support for those who need to remain in care.

Casey Family Programs’ social workers partner with families to:

  • Increase adoption and guardianship opportunities.
  • Find relatives who are able to care for a child.
  • Reunite children with birth parents when safe and appropriate to do so.
