Help a Child Find a Family
What is Fairfax Families4Kids?
Fairfax Families4Kids is an initiative of the Foster Care and Adoption Program in the Department of Family Services. We find adoptive families and lasting relationships with adults for children in foster care.
We are seeking adults to adopt, mentor, or host children ages 9 to 18, living in foster care. We are also looking for volunteers for the initiative and advocates for the children.
Fairfax Families4Kids gives children the opportunity to participate in regularly scheduled community recreational and social activities where they can meet potential adoptive families and mentors.
A child may also spend a series of weekends with a volunteer host family that partners with the child and the staff to find the child a permanent, adoptive family.
