The mission of All Star Children’s Foundation is to build brighter futures for children in foster care through innovation, science, and compassion. The team at the nonprofit organizaation believes that they can fulfill this mission by adopting evidence-based, trauma-informed practices that recognize the intergenerational nature of trauma among children in foster care and address their complex and diverse needs. They focus on educating, supporting, and empowering the adults around a child to promote safe, trusting adult-child relationships within which children can thrive. At present, they provide foster care placement on their 5-acre Campus of Hope and Healing, evidence-based mental health services, foster parent and community trainings, science, innovation and compassion.

"Every child deserves a home where they are safe. Whenever possible, All Star works collaboratively with families and community partners to support children reuniting with their parents and relatives. Reunification encourages better overall mental health and reduced anxiety — leading to a happier life."  All Star Children's Foundation.
