What We Do

America’s Angels is committed to a team approach in administrating the program as well as providing care and treatment for children. America’s Angels utilizes trained, experienced full time staff, subcontractors and consulting service providers in the community to meet the needs of each child accepted into foster care and the foster families who serve the children.

A strength based approach is used for America’s Angels treatment planning: Goals are positive and a need cannot be addressed without a corresponding strength to resolve it. Every effort is made to include families of origin in the treatment planning process. Connections and continuity is preserved for each child as much as possible, including making every effort to provide the family and child every opportunity to build upon their strengths and by working to keep sibling groups placed together in the same foster home.

America’s Angels participates and collaborates with other social agencies and planning groups in the community for the purpose of coordinating, planning, and expanding services concerned with strengthening family life and services for children and their families.

How we do it

At America’s Angels we have a passion for what we do. Starting with our Board of Directors, and through all levels of operation, America’s Angels staff and foster parents all share the same vision – to provide safety and stability for children in need. We want our children and certified foster homes to emerge with new strength, commitment and direction. We provide for the safety, permanency, and well-being of every foster child placed in our care. We want to ensure that our children are provided with the necessities and guidance needed to ensure that they make a smooth transition and become contributing adult citizens to their community. We will always strive for Excellence, Integrity, and Compassion.
