As a network of renowned leaders with cross-sector expertise, Foster America’s board of directors drives our mission to see every child and family thrive.
Grounded in our mission, vision, and values, we partner with communities and governments to align policy, funding, and practice—supporting families early and before separation becomes the default response.
Foster America’s 2023-2026 strategic plan will accelerate and amplify our impact. Our new strategy integrates lessons gathered across six fellowship cohorts. It also represents our response to an unprecedented opportunity for systemic change in service of children, families, and communities and in pursuit of a more just, equitable world.
In 2026, Foster America marks a decade of building an alternative to a child welfare system rooted in crisis—and proving that families thrive when support comes early, with dignity, and led by community.
