Kids need families.

Families need a village.

Second Nurture partners with communities to open their doors and hearts to the needs and realities of local foster families.

30% of American adults have considered welcoming kids from foster care into their loving families. If merely half a percent of those who consider fostering or adopting from foster care actually do it, we could get every kid into a family.

Second Nurture closes the gap between consideration and action.

Kids from foster care, in their own words, on the importance of family. (Three-minute video from our partners at the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption)
