Foster and Adoptive Care Coalition

Our mission is to create permanency in every foster child's life by recruiting and supporting foster/adoptive homes in the St. Louis metropolitan community.

The Foster and Adoptive Care Coalition is a non-profit agency, founded in 1985 with the support of the United Way of Greater St. Louis. Our mission is to create permanency in every foster child's life by recruiting and supporting foster/adoptive homes in the St. Louis metropolitan community.

Our vision is for a community that embraces its most vulnerable members, ensuring that each child in foster care has an opportunity for a healthy, successful life by providing safe, nurturing homes, and a support system for foster and adoptive families as they fulfill the physical, mental, and emotional needs of the children in their care.

Our services are: 1) unique and needed in our community; 2) based on best practice and research; and 3) constantly measured for effectiveness. To leverage the maximum number of services for our families, we continually seek to develop collaborations with community partners.
