ADOPT A FAMILY
ADOPT A FAMILY
The Adopt A Family (AAF) program focuses on the entire family unit within a household. We understand that home should be the foundation to a happy, healthy, and safe family; therefore, AAF goal is to help families who have experienced hardships to live a full and enriched life. We will achieve this by providing each family with a personal parent coach (advocate) who works exclusively with family members to ensure their essential needs are met. AAF offers families aid and guidance, the identification of reliable resources, the collaboration of working with other organizations, family and individual support, and family to family mentorship. We aim to assist families in focusing on their essential needs and the eight dimensions of wellness.
