Foster Kinship keeps home in the family when children cannot live with their parents.

Our mission is to strengthen the capacity of kinship caregivers—grandparents, relatives, and close family friends—to provide safe, stable, and nurturing homes for children who have experienced trauma.

In Nevada alone, more than 30,000 children are growing up without either biological parent due to abuse, neglect, substance misuse, mental illness, domestic violence, homelessness, or other crises. Most of these children are cared for by their grandmothers or other relatives in an arrangement known as kinship care.

Kinship care is both intervention and prevention. Relatives intervene when children can no longer remain safely with their parents, and at the same time prevent children from entering the foster care system and being placed with strangers. By empowering caregivers with resources, support, and advocacy, Foster Kinship helps ensure that children in crisis can remain connected to family, culture, and community - the relationships that matter most.
