Casey Family Programs is a national operating foundation committed to improving the lives of children and families. We believe that all children deserve healthy, safe and permanent families, and supportive communities.

The foundation is now accepting nominations for the Casey Excellence for
Children Awards.

These annual awards recognize alumni, birth parents, foster parents and kinship caregivers who dedicate themselves to improving the lives of children and families.

Nominees for each constituent group are evaluated on distinguished work, exceptional leadership and relentless dedication in support of their constituent group. The winner also will have demonstrated leadership in working to improve the child welfare system.

Casey Excellence for Children Awards winners carry the banner for the countless number of individuals across the nation doing extraordinary work on behalf of those involved in the foster care system.
