They spoke to them about becoming a resource family to children in foster care while reuniting them with their birth families or adopting a child.

The Children’s Bureau is committed to providing vulnerable children the foundation necessary to become caring and productive adults.

“I got into this business because I wanted to do something more meaningful,” an official in charge of matching children with foster parents said. “Knowing that people want children and children need a family, there’s no greater satisfaction.”

Children’s Bureau is the largest non profit adoption agency in California.

They were established in 1904 to protect children, began providing adoption services in the 1940’s in response to the increased need of finding homes for World War II refuge children and war orphans.

Today, they help 500 at-risk children in caring foster homes and finalize over 100 adoptions each year. For 110 years, Children’s Bureau has been a nonprofit leader in the prevention and treatment of child abuse and neglect.

More than 28,000 children and families are helped each year throughout Southern California with services that include school readiness, parenting classes, family resource centers, support groups, mental health counseling, foster care, foster-adoption and more.

  1. The event was a bust. It was run more like a sale of children…lots of promises of cash to anyone who hasn’t been arrested in the last 12 months. They also made promises of much more money if we entered the system and fully agreed with adoption. They said they can make it so the foster children never go home. They said we would get a lot of money.
