See What’s Happening at A Kid’s Place
As Foster Care Stays Lengthen, A Kid's Place Expands its Mission.
Many children entering foster care after years of instability need more shelter. They need consistent adults, stable routines and the chance to remain with their brothers and sisters long enough to feel safe, trust others and simply be children again.
