Forever Family® is a truly unique, non-profit organization that utilizes the power of the media, through television segments and on-air promotions, to create awareness regarding children and teens in foster care --sensitively.  We create public / private partnerships for the important task of finding children in foster care adoptive homes, recruitment of foster parents and volunteers, and help for teens ‘aging out’ of the foster care system.

Everyone dreams of the future. Sadly, most children in foster care will never achieve those dreams. In Florida, 3 out of 4 of these young people don't earn a standard high school diploma. Help us change that. HELP NOW and LEARN MORE

Children in Foster Care Need YOUR Help

Misunderstandings about who children in foster care are and why they are in care add to the enormous hurdles they face.

MYTH 1 – Nearly half of Americans believe that children are placed into foster care because of juvenile delinquency.

THE TRUTH -Children are removed from their homes due to abuse, neglect, abandonment or the death of their parents.

MYTH 2 – Most Americans (68%) think that children in foster care can not be adopted.

THE TRUTH – There are more than 100,000 children in America’s foster care system waiting and hoping to be adopted.   
 

MYTH 3 – Of those that are aware of foster care adoption, nearly half (46%) believe that it is expensive. 

THE TRUTH – Foster care adoption is FREE. There may even be a monthly stipend, free college, and free health insurance.

MYTH 4 – Two-thirds of people considering adoption are concerned that the biological parents can take the child back.  

THE TRUTH – Once the adoption is finalized the child(ren) are legally a part of your family - forever.

Forever Family is uniquely positioned to dispel these myths -
But we need your help.
