Foster care is about showing up with patience, compassion, and a willingness to help a young person feel safe again.

Many people think fostering requires special circumstances, but the truth is that caring individuals from many different backgrounds can become foster parents.

What matters most is your heart and your commitment to helping a child find stability during a difficult time.

With the right support, training, and resources, you can foster with confidence and become part of a community dedicated to healing and hope.

If you have ever thought about fostering, this might be your moment to take the first step.

Research shows that around 20% of young adults aging out of foster care experience homelessness within a few years, and that percentage continues to increase in the years that follow without sustained support.

The period immediately after foster care is a pivotal window. Outcomes during these early years often shape long-term stability.

Preventing homelessness among former foster youth requires intentional, early intervention. Transitional housing is a strategy for long-term community impact.

Did you know?

Crittenton began in a single house. Today, we operate five programs supporting children and families every day.

Healing starts with care, compassion, and connection. Our services work together to uplift children, empower families, and build brighter futures:

• Foster Care – We provide safe, stable homes through trained Foster Parents who offer consistent support and guidance.
• Residential Care – Children and teens receive a safe place to live, structured daily support, and access to education and therapeutic care.
• Mental Health – Our community-based clinical services help children and families build coping skills and move toward lasting healing.
• Transitional Housing – Young adults gain stable housing, life skills, and career development as they prepare for independence.
• Family Preservation – Families receive in-home support, parenting education, and resources that help them remain safely together.

Together, these programs create pathways toward stability, resilience, and long-term healing.

We invite you to join us for our upcoming Cook’s Night Out fundraiser at Fratellino’s Restaurant on Tuesday, February 24th and Wednesday, February 25th.

Twice a year, the Felicia Auxiliary hosts this two-day event in support of Crittenton. All funds raised directly benefit the children and families we serve, making this a wonderful opportunity to enjoy a meal while giving back to your community.

The offer is valid during both lunch and dinner hours, and the flyer will also be honored for takeout orders if you are unable to dine in.

We are incredibly thankful for the continued support of our community and for the Felicia Auxiliary’s ongoing commitment to Crittenton’s mission.

We hope to see you there.

Trauma can shift a life in ways no one asks for. Healing begins when people are given the choice, agency, and possibility to move forward on their own terms.

At Crittenton, we walk alongside those in our care as they create new paths rooted in safety, care, and hope.

This season was about more than gifts. It was about healing, hope and creating memories.

Because of our Angel Tree supporters, a mother was able to create a meaningful holiday for her children during a new chapter of safety and a young artist found a voice through creativity and expression.

Your generosity reminded children and families that they are seen, valued, and deserving of the very best.

Thank you for making the season brighter.

Becoming a foster parent means choosing to be a steady, safe presence during one of the most important moments in a child’s life.

Children in foster care need consistency, patience, and care from adults who are willing to show up and provide stability when everything feels uncertain. Foster parents help create routines, rebuild trust, and offer the kind of support that allows children to begin healing and growing with confidence.

You do not need to be perfect to foster. You simply need the willingness to open your home and your heart.

Basic requirements
• Be at least 21 years old
• Single or married
• Rent or own your home
• Pass a background check
• Live in Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, or San Bernardino County

Training, ongoing support, and financial assistance are available for certified families.
