All children have the right to thrive in a safe, stable and
loving family environment. Although our core services are 100% government funded, we
rely on donations from corporations, organizations and
individuals to offer additional support not provided elsewhere for children and youth served by our agency. Through special funds and programs, children and youth are able to enjoy and experience the things that many of us take for granted.
