Connecting Today...Transforming Tomorrow

Welcome to the FCAA Website.

Imagine what can happen when people like you join together to create a positive change in our foster care system.

FLUX: Life after Foster Care

Now available!

With powerful stories, artwork, guidance and support from more than 100 alumni, FLUX was written to support young people in the emotional transition from foster care to adulthood.

FLUX brings honest, useful, and juicy real-life expertise that can only come from those of us who have experienced the system first hand. We explore bio family relationships, building support systems, parenting, and intimacy topics. We talk about our struggles and our successes.

CONNECTING TODAY

We are building a permanent, extended-family community. Through FCAA, you forever have a place to belong—something so many of us didn’t find growing up.

We are creating opportunities to use our hard-won expertise to improve the lives of people in and from foster care.

We are changing the culture of foster care.

Whether you are an alumnus of foster care or an ally, please join us as we Connect Today…Transform Tomorrow. Click here for definitions of alumni and ally.

TRANSFORMING TOMORROW

We estimate there are 12 million alumni of foster care and 800,000 foster care professionals in the United States.

Can you imagine the changes we can make when even a small percentage of us get together?

Can you envision how your own life and work will be improved by being part of a giant network of people working together to change foster care for the next generations?

It really matters that you’re here. Learn more about how you can get involved.

HAPPY 5TH BIRTHDAY, FCAA!

We can hardly believe it ourselves! Building FCAA over the last five years has been a true team effort, and we want to say thank you being a part of our winning team. Whether you have been one of the players or a loyal fan, whether you attended every practice or cheered from the sidelines, whether you helped us score a homerun or patted our backs when we struck out, we are grateful to count you among our FCAA family.

But as we dream of FCAA’s next five years, we need you. Our growing, vibrant, connected alumni community is speaking out proudly on behalf of our young brothers and sisters in care. We are bringing our voices before those who can help us make a difference for the next generation. We need your voice among us, we need your ideas to inform us, and we need your experiences to teach us. We also need your support.

Whether you can make a gift that begins or ends in a “5” to honor our 5th birthday, or pledge to recruit 5 new members before the end of the year, or sponsor 5 alumni memberships, we want and need your support. Donate to FCAA now.
