Casey Family Programs is the nation’s largest operating foundation focused on safely reducing the need for foster care while improving the safety and well-being of children. We are dedicated to building Communities of Hope, where all children can grow up safely in their own families and communities with access to the resources and opportunities they need to reach their full potential. Founded in 1966, we work across all 50 states, Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and with Tribal Nations to build lasting change by supporting communities in transforming how they protect and nurture the safety and well-being of children and their families.
No youth should ever be without a home — period. This urgent belief and over 50 years of experience have placed Covenant House at the forefront of the fight against youth homelessness. Founded in 1972, Covenant House is the largest primarily privately-funded agency in the North and Central America offering free 24/7 crisis care, housing, and supportive services for youth, young families, and survivors of human trafficking. Located in 34 cities across 5 countries (the United States, Canada, Guatemala, Honduras, and Mexico) Covenant House provides shelter, food, medical and mental health care, crisis intervention, educational and vocational services, and an array of supportive services to youth facing homelessness regardless of their race, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression. The Covenant House mission is centered and built on community, where youth, staff, volunteers, and partners love one another unconditionally, respect each other absolutely, and dedicate ourselves to a covenant of compassion and hope.
The Office of Volunteer Services is committed to ensuring that our volunteers have a positive and rewarding experience during their time with us. We provide Children’s Aid programs and staff with access to dedicated individuals looking to donate a portion of their time working directly with and on behalf of our children and families.
