Our programs are created to help empower children and build sustainable foster homes. Our solution to the foster care crisis are the Love Box family support program and Dare to Dream youth mentor programs. Our programs utilize a trauma-informed, wrap-around service model that strengthens relationships between foster families, youth in foster care, and bio families. In 2016, Austin launched its first chapter in Amarillo, Texas and has then grown to open 22 chapters across the Nation, including Atlanta Angels, which launched in 2020.
