Children’s Action Alliance (CAA) is proud to serve as the lead organization for Fostering Advocates Arizona. CAA convenes representatives from public and community-based agencies and engages them in opportunities to improve policy and practice. The Community Advisory Board identifies resources and strengthens partnerships that improve outcomes for young people impacted by foster care.
What We Do
The Community Advisory Board (CAB) guides Fostering Advocates Arizona and helps implement these five core strategies:
Youth Engagement Prepares young people to be meaningfully involved in their communities as decision-makers and advocates.
Partnerships and Resources Connect Fostering Advocates Arizona to sources of public and private funding, expand and deepen community support for foster youth, and cultivate community champions for young people transitioning from foster care.
Research, Evaluation, and Communications Involve key stakeholders in the use of data to drive decision-making and communications and to document results. Encourage stakeholders to use data when making decisions, communicating with key audiences, and documenting program results.
Public Will and Policy Advance policies and practices that improve outcomes for young people transitioning from foster care.
Increase Opportunities Create employment, education, healthcare, and financial opportunity programs and help foster care young adults access those opportunities.
