MOCKINGBIRD FAMILY RECREATES THE POSITIVE QUALITIES AND RESOURCES FOUND IN NATURALLY THRIVING FAMILIES IN PART THROUGH THE ROLE OF THE HUB HOMEAN EXPERIENCED AND LICENSED FOSTER CARE FAMILY WHO PROVIDES SUPPORT TO OTHER FOSTER FAMILIES PARTICIPATING IN MOCKINGBIRD FAMILY. THE COMMUNITY NETWORK CREATED BY MOCKINGBIRD FAMILY FOCUSES ON THE INDIVIDUAL NEEDS OF ITS YOUTH BY ENSURING FOSTER PARENTS ARE HIGHLY SKILLED AND EFFECTIVE IN PROVIDING THE BEST CARE FOR OUR COMMUNITY'S YOUTHS. WHEN FOSTER FAMILIES ARE DEVELOPED AND BROUGHT INTO A SUPPORTIVE COMMUNITY LIKE MOCKINGBIRD FAMILY, SOCIAL WORKERS ARE MORE ABLE TO FOCUS ON SUCCESSFUL REUNIFICATIONS WITH FAMILY AND LOVED ONES AND OTHER MEANINGFUL PERMANENCY OPTIONS FOR OUR YOUNG PEOPLE.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2022 – Dec 31, 2022Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$716.5KYouth Programs and Advocacy
