At Wayfinder Family Services, we believe supporting kinship families means turning knowledge into action.

That’s why Wayfinder, in partnership with Spaulding for Children, is bringing professionals together for Kin First Culture: Words to Action, our free Virtual Kinship Summit on September 24.

Throughout the day, Wayfinder leaders and our kinship navigation team will join county partners and national kinship expert Dr. Joseph Crumbley to explore practical strategies for supporting kinship families. Sessions will include Wayfinder’s kinship navigation program model, tools for working with families and approaches to strengthening kinship navigator programs.

The summit will also introduce Wayfinder’s Kinnections Kinship Navigation Model, currently in review by the Title IV-E Prevention Services Clearinghouse.

Reducing trauma. Improving health and mental health. Finding loving homes for children who have been abused or neglected. Each year, Wayfinder strives to do more to improve lives.

Last year, 98% of children placed in kinship care remained in a permanent placement after one year. We’ll continue to do more until this number is 100%.

✅ 85% with a kinship caregiver
✅ 10% reunified with a parent
✅ 2% legal guardianship
✅ 1% adopted
