The History of Connections for Kids
Connections For Kids was founded in 1996 by a former foster parent who saw a great need for short-term residential placements for children in the custody of the Department of Health and Human Services. The goal was to limit the number of placements a child would have to make before they found the right home and we specialized in keeping sibling groups together.
Originally called Foster Family Connection, Connections for Kids has grown from a single residential program to a complete mental health and educational based agency providing a continuum of care to families, children, youth, and adults. Kids Free to Grow is an affiliate of Connections for Kids.
