Alliance of Moms

Alliance of Moms Founded by five LA moms in 2014, the Alliance of Moms is a membership based auxiliary group that supports the work of the Alliance for Children’s Rights.

A community of supporting Alliance for Children's Rights and pregnant/parenting teens in foster care so they can build a positive future for their families. Our mission is to break the intergenerational cycle of babies born to teens in foster care. Currently, 75% of girls in foster care are pregnant by the age of 21. Over 40% of babies born to youth in foster care will be detained in

the first years of life. As parents ourselves, we feel a natural affinity for this vulnerable population and recognize that pregnant and parenting foster teens have not had the benefit of parenting role models. We create educational programs to empower these young moms and dads to become informed parents who can give their babies a healthier childhood than their own. We offer our flagship program, Raising Baby, twice a year. Each Raising Baby has an expert curriculum focused on infant care and early brain development. Foster teen parents participate in workshops while Alliance of Moms volunteers care for their children. Our other programs include: Mama + Babe and Raising Foodies' nutritional cooking classes at St. Anne’s residential facility, our annual Giant Playdate family fundraiser for members and foster families, and monthly Mom’s Night Out evenings to recruit and educate members through a speaker series addressing issues facing foster youth. Alliance of Moms partners include The Honest Company, Ergo, Heirloom LA, The Mama Circle, Too Small To Fail Initiative and Echo Parenting.

This year’s ALL MAMA, ALL HEART brought our community together in such a powerful way.

Together, we shared stories from young moms impacted by foster care and helped create more visibility, support, and connection for young families.

Thank you to everyone who wore a tee, shared a post, gave, or helped spread the word—you made this possible.

Every act of support helps young parents access essentials, guidance, and a community that shows up for them as they build futures for themselves and their children.

We’re so grateful you’re part of this.
