Children CHANGE THIS!

Every child deserves to have an opportunity for permanency in his or her life. 

Children in Kentucky’s out-of-home-care system  long for forever families who believe in them, love them and desire life’s very best for them. They anxiously await an opportunity to develop a lifetime connection with another person who will be there for them throughout their life journey. Our daily efforts on behalf of permanency for the children we serve really does have the ability to change the lives of children and to help them find their wings and their forever families. Sometimes, the challenges are many; but, there is no greater reward than seeing a child and his or her new family connect for a lifetime. 

Permanency is not a place. It’s the key to a child’s heart. It’s the light in a child's eyes. It’s the smile on children's faces. It’s the love that develops and warms their souls. Permanency is for every child.
