Amara
This collaboration between Amara and Empowered shows how the child welfare system can be improved to reduce the trauma often experienced by those involved in the foster care system, and how we can bridge the gaps in the system to help families heal. Amara is a nonprofit based in Washington State’s Puget Sound region, serving children, youth, and families involved in, at risk of entering, the child welfare system through compassionate, strengths-based programs. With a focus on foster and kinship care, Amara bridges gaps by offering services that help families stabilize, that support youth and kinship families, and that keep families connected, when possible. By emphasizing connection, wrap-around support, and long-term well-being, Amara empowers families and strengthens communities.
