A Message From Our Executive Director

It's June!
Join us in celebrating
Reunification and PRIDE Month!

Reunification and permanency may be two words the rest of the World doesn't put together. But, if you're a foster, adoptive, or kinship parent you understand the impact those two words have on a foster child's life.

We are the safety net and the guardian angels of thousands of children in the United States.

Our goal is to provide a safe haven when needed, facilitate healing, and family reunification whenever possible.

Twenty-One Days!! It's not too late to register and plan a quick trip to DC for our 53rd NFPA Education Conference in Reston, Virginia.

We will be be dishing up some incredible presentations from experts in the field of child welfare, as well as dishing up a magnificent Monticello Buffet with dishes Virginia is famous for at our Friday night Gala Appreciation Dinner.

Relax in the luxurious Reston Hyatt Regency at a highly discounted rate. And, join us Saturday for a family-friendly fun Sock-Hop with swing dancers.

Finally, we will be sending you home having shared time and stories with others with experiences like yourself, and with a suitcase full of hope from our keynote speaker Dr. Angela Pharris on Sunday morning.

We promise you will leave this conference refreshed and enthusiastic and with a lot of new friends! Please join us!
