Our Approach

The best “system” of care for children already exists—their families. For too long the child welfare system has separated, rather than supported, families. We’re here to change that through co-design and community-driven solutions—not incrementally, but fundamentally.

Shifting structures

We mobilize leaders to co-design solutions with parents and communities, keeping families safely together. Rooted in healing and belonging, we center families by building with—not for—those most impacted.

Our Impact

Through our work shifting hearts and minds, practice, and structures, we have seen incredible outcomes that indicate more families are getting the support they need, and more kids are living safely at home. Some of our most exciting outcomes are shared here.
