Partnering for safe and healthy communities.
A Life of Hospitality

The Weavers have been foster parents for more than 20 years. In that time, they have provided a loving home for 87 youth and have adopted six of them. They, along with one of their foster youth entering the National Guard, were recently honored on the field at the Chiefs Charity Game. We sat down with them to glean what they have learned along the way.
Expanding Services in Kansas

We are excited to have been awarded the   Family Preservation grant for the Kansas Department of Children and Families' Eastern region .  A voluntary service provided to families with children at risk of entering foster care, family preservation includes both short-term case management services and intensive in-home services. Going into effect on January 1, 2020, and running through June 30, 2024, we will provide family prevention services to 420 families in 25 Kansas counties.
Save the Date!

We're throwing a masquerade party at this year’s Spirit Gala! Join us on November 1 at the Overland Park Convention Center for cocktails, silent and live auctions, a delicious dinner, dancing and entertainment while honoring the Spirit Award recipients who embody the philanthropic spirit of Kansas City. Proceeds benefit our children and families!
Youth Need YOU This Holiday

Because of our recent expansion, we will be providing presents for more than 1,300 youth this holiday season. We want to give them quality items and make them feel valued, so the suggested price range of each sponsorship is $75-$100. Would you consider sponsoring a wish list? If so, please email us your commitment via the button below.
