At Foster Kinship Sports, we exist to champion the holistic development, dignity, and destiny of children and youth navigating the complexities of foster and kinship care. We deploy the transformative power of sports as a structured, trauma-informed vehicle to restore agency, instill belonging, and cultivate resilience in young people whose lives have been disrupted by separation, loss, or instability.

Our mission is to bridge the critical gap between child welfare and youth development by creating equitable access to organized athletics, therapeutic mentorship, and caregiver support that affirms both the child’s humanity and the kinship family’s strength. Through strategic collaboration with educators, mental health professionals, policymakers, and community leaders, we create systems of care that are proactive rather than punitive, rooted in dignity rather than deficiency.

We envision a future where no child in kinship or foster care is denied the opportunity to thrive simply because of their circumstances. We believe that healing happens in motion, that hope is built through structure, and that sport—when guided by compassion and expertise—can be both shield and compass. Foster Kinship Sports is not merely an athletic program; it is a movement to reimagine care, restore potential, and redefine what is possible for our most vulnerable youth and the families who raise them.
