Our Commitment to the Communities We Serve
At Foster Adopt Minnesota, we recognize that we work within systems that have caused and continue to cause harm to communities, especially those who are uniquely impacted within the child welfare system, including BIPOC and LGBTQIA2S+ individuals and families.
We are committed to supporting the building and nurturing of connections with the kinship, foster care, and adoption communities; first families; and the professionals who serve them. As an organization:
These guiding values are reflected within our organizational culture and our professional relationships, and inform our efforts to provide an inclusive, equitable, and welcoming environment for all the communities we support.
