Host families for children in foster care help kids, ages 9-18 years old, in Los Angeles County California foster care. Hosts are required to spend  at least two days (or two weekends) a month with the child. They have the child as a guest in their home. The goal of a host is to get to know the child and help other adults meet the child so that the child can find an adoptive family or committed mentor. We want every child in California foster care to be able to say “I was in foster care”.

Volunteers for Weekend Miracles can be host families, mentors or advocates for children. We also need people to help recruit host families among every demographic group — Caucasian families, families of color and families who will support gay, lesbian and transgender youth. Gay families are welcome. Together we recruit people to manage events each weekend so the kids can meet people interested in adopting and mentoring them. We partner with community organizations to host weekend events for kids — churches, synagogues, civic groups. If you have PR skills, website development, photography or social work expertise we can use you, too.
