About this organization
Mission
The mission of Ampersand Families is to provide permanency and adoption services to older youth and families who face barriers to equity in child welfare, and to champion systemic changes that advance belonging, dignity and hope.
About
During FY19, we supported 33 youth being placed for adoption or finalized into adoptive families. We completed home studies for 28 families. 27 relatives received consultation and support regarding their desire to provide permanency to a relative child and 7 of those consultations resulted in completion of the home study process. During FY19, we continued to deepen our post-placement supports by expanding the buddy family program, family retreats and use of the neurosequential model of therapeutics assessments. We also began the MyVoice program, providing opportunities for leadership development and engagement for youth who are living in temporary placements or adoptive/guardianship homes. Minnesota Heart Gallery provided professional photo shoots to 77 children and sibling groups.
