Whatever their age, children removed from the home because of abuse or neglect face a frightening, profound unknown.

We make sure they don’t face it alone.

We stand by them. We are there whenever they need us, for as long as it takes to reach a safe, permanent home. We are strong, compassionate adults who are a consistent presence, who care, who listen, and who put the child’s interests before all others.

Our goal is to ensure that every child who has experienced abuse or neglect has a volunteer advocate to speak up for their best interests. We will help them find safety, permanency, and the road home, wherever it lies.  We will help them heal and thrive.
