Our Work

Since 1976, Casey Family Services has provided social services designed to improve the lives of children and youth involved in, or those at risk of entry to, the child welfare system, particularly foster care. Casey also uses the lessons learned from its work to improve child welfare practice and policy at the local, state, and national level.

Family Permanence

All children need and deserve a family for life, as well as the highest quality of services, that help improve their safety and well-being. But not all children in our country have these supports. By providing direct services and offering technical assistance, Casey Family Services strives to secure improved futures for society’s most vulnerable children and families.

The Casey Approach

With a mission and history rooted in an ambitious vision to build better futures for disadvantaged children, Casey Family Services is part of a larger approach to philanthropy established by the Annie E. Casey Foundation. By sharing our lessons learned through direct service, Casey Family Services is committed to expanding its influence with key audiences to maximize its ability to leverage more resources for kids, families, and their communities.
