Welcoming an Old Partner in a New Capacity! 

We are thrilled to announce that Loving Hands Children’s Home has officially joined forces with our long time friends at the Department of Child and Family Services (DCFS) and A Better Me Foundation to expand our Youth Empowerment Program! Together, we are opening new doors for youth who are transitioning out of foster care and / or simply into independent adulthood, a critical time that calls for support, guidance, stability, and hope.

This partnership represents  a reunion of shared purpose. Having worked alongside these amazing organizations in the past, we are excited to reconnect in a new capacity that will allow us to reach even more young people and families.
