Coalition for Children, Youth & Families

Families navigating child welfare, foster care, kinship care, and adoption can find guidance, resources, training, and connections through this Wisconsin organization. The Wisconsin Family Connections Center links families with support services and essential information about out-of-home care. Champion Classrooms offers training and education for caregivers and professionals, with topics including trauma, resilience, and creating stable environments for children. The Wisconsin Adoption program provides a central database and guidance for families exploring adoption, including information about children waiting for permanent homes. The Coalition also shares family stories through No Matter What Families. Its work includes connecting families to tailored resources, advocating for their needs through complex systems, and providing judgment-free support. The organization serves families across Wisconsin and is based in West Allis.
