The Cultural Broker Pilot program aims to reduce disparities for Black children and families in LA County’s child welfare system. Community Cultural Brokers (CCBs) advocate for families, helping them navigate the system to prevent children from entering or facilitating timely reunification if removal occurs.

Resource/Foster Parents/Caregivers are one of the most important functions in the life of a child or young person who have had to leave their origin family home. 3FN believes that Caregivers must receive high quality support to ensure they provide a high-quality living experience for the children in their care. We support Caregivers with support groups and in-person gatherings to build community and exchange information.

3FN provides tangible goods such as diapers, beds, cribs strollers, car seats and more to help stabilize and or improve the lives of vulnerable families and those impacted by the child welfare system.

The goal of foster care is to ultimately reunite children with their biological families if it is safe. 3FN’s family bonding sites provide safes spaces where children and families can spend meaningful time together as they prepare to reunite.
