Open House & Impact Hour Recap
Our Open House brought community members together to explore our new forever home, connect with Coalition programs, watch powerful impact stories, and shop ReFresh. Thank you to everyone who joined us to learn more about the work happening every day to support children and families impacted by foster care.
A Path Back to Family
Three siblings entered foster care facing uncertainty, but a committed father, supportive foster family, and dedicated Family Search & Engagement Specialist helped keep family at the center. Their story shows what can happen when parents are engaged early, connections are nurtured, and everyone works together toward reunification.
Your Donations Make a Difference
Every donation to ReFresh helps provide clothing, shoes, hygiene items and everyday essentials to children and teens impacted by foster care. Clear out your closet, give your gently used items a second life and help a young person feel confident, supported and cared for.
