Our Mission

At families Helping Families (FHF), our mission is to support children in foster care and the caregivers who selflessly open their hearts and homes to them. We are dedicated to creating an environment where these children can thrive and feel valued while providing essential resources and unwavering support for their caregivers on this important journey.

FHF’s comprehensive approach is reflected in our nine programs, which cover a wide range of needs in three categories: essentials, education, and celebrations. We are the only organization supporting foster children that operates in all 99 counties in Iowa, ensuring our support is accessible to all. Our home base is Cedar Rapids, Iowa, the city with the second highest number of children in foster care.
