Foster America is committed to sharing the lessons learned from our work. Visit this section for frequently updated resources about ongoing efforts to transform the child welfare system.
Child protection is a complicated system, and the policies that govern it vary from state to state. Here, you’ll gain a foundational understanding of the system created to protect children – and learn about its shortfalls.
To create a truly sustainable alternative to traditional foster care, we must ensure the voices of those most impacted by the child welfare system are at the heart of all innovation efforts.
Child protection has long been treated as the primary approach to family well-being, when in fact many systems must be aligned to ensure families have what they need to thrive.
We help secure funding to proactively support families, an alternative to the costly reactive approaches of the traditional child welfare system.
To amplify our impact, we share information to enable others to test-drive and build upon our innovations. We also ensure data informs our decisions and fuels continuous improvement.
