Legado de Esperanza Foundation

Description

Our approach to caring for orphaned and vulnerable children is centered around family, and is evident in our 3 main areas of execution:

1. We strive to remove poverty as a reason for children entereing altnerative care in the first place. We are building programs to preserve well-intentioned biological families.
2. If children do need to enter care, due to neglect or abuse, we work get them in family settings, similar to the US foster care system
3. We also provide an intimate familiy environment for children in crisis situations, giving them a safe and loving home for 24-72 hours while extended family or longer term homes can be found.
