Help us ! 🛑

Foster children, the children most vulnerable in our communities, are at a high risk of entering the “School-To-Prison-Pipeline.” An alarming 30% of foster youth will enter the juvenile justice system each year due to behavior in and out of school. These children experience childhood trauma that stacks the odds greatly against them in traditional learning environments. It is our entire mission to see these children get the support and education they need to live a loving and meaningful life. 🎓
