Did you know that there are over 7,600 vulnerable children in the foster care system in NYC alone? Launched in connection with the 10 Zip Codes Project and our desire to engage the most vulnerable communities throughout NYC, our Family Advocacy Ministry (FAM) equips churches with tangible opportunities and systems that can prevent kids from entering foster care, intervene once foster care is a necessity, and/or connect children with families for a lifetime.
