Over half a million kids live in foster care in this country and most are shown the door when they reach age 18 – they are truly All Grown Up and Nowhere to Go. These young people, through no fault of their own, face great challenges in life—first through abuse and neglect—then by a system that no longer cares for them. This is a Call to Action for the community to help former foster youth in Palm Beach and Broward counties!

Kids@Home and Turtle Nest Village are joining forces to assist youth aging out of the Foster Care System. Our life coaches are helping these young people secure housing, education, job support, life skill development and much more. And we need your help to prevent the worst outcomes for them, which are homelessness, incarceration or drug dependency.

We are mounting our own “stimulus campaign” to help continue our services while we complete our merger and stabilize our organization during our difficult economy.

Our goal is to raise $120,000 in 60 days – that’s $2000/day from June 1 – July 31. To learn more about how you can help, please contact us at 561-392-1703, x230 or go to www.kidsathome.org to donate on-line. THANK YOU!

Kids@Home is a non-profit organization led by dedicated, talented professionals. Professionals who use evolving business principles, best care practices, and today's technology to tackle the complex problems facing our youth. After all, preparing kids for life on their own is not easy - to do it successfully an organization must perform at a high level.

Our organization is founded on financial strength and managed to promote long-term growth and stability. We want to be here long into the future to help kids make a positive transition into adulthood.

Our aim at Kids@Home is to ensure the safety, permanency, and well being of teens as they transition from foster care to adulthood. Our vision doesn't end there, though. We're determined to serve more children, young people, and their families - and to serve them better - than has previously been realized. To this end, Kids@Home is dedicated to strengthening the child welfare community in the 21st century.
