Mission Statement
We are on a mission to heal the pain of abuse and neglect in children.
Description
Many Lights Foundation is dedicated to improving the lives of children and youth who have experienced trauma and family separation.
We are a driving force for the creation of an intergenerational community that supports kinship families and those adopting children from the public foster care system. This is a community where everyone is valued, everyone contributes, and everyone flourishes. Our intergenerational approach strengthens families and affords children and youth opportunities to improve their health, well-being, and educational outcomes setting up their successful transition to adulthood.
