Families Rising

Families Rising (formerly the North American Council on Adoptable Children, NACAC) has championed permanent families for children in foster care across the U.S. and Canada for more than 50 years. They amplify the voices of those with lived experience, support adoptive and foster parents with education and resources, train child welfare professionals, and advocate for policies that improve outcomes for children and families — with a particular focus on ensuring every child in foster care has a safe, permanent, loving, and culturally competent family.
