The Alliance: Defending the Cause

A nonprofit organization

All children deserve to grow up in safe, loving FAMILIES and strong COMMUNITIES are built on stable families. Unfortunately, we live in a world full of broken commitments and broken relationships. The rates of divorce and fatherlessness in our culture keep rising leaving children without healthy adults to meet their needs. This is a wide-spread, complex issue that requires a collective response.

The Alliance has 4 main goals:

UNITE local organizations, CONNECT families in need with resources, MOBILIZE the community to get involved, EQUIP people to care for kids & families

Mission

The Alliance is a united movement of organizations and individuals workingtogether to serve vulnerable kids and families in the Greater Sacramento Area. Our Mission is to prevent and heal childhood trauma by leveraging the power of collaboration.

The Alliance currently partners with over 100 local organizations serving current/former foster youth, resource & adoptive families, local refugees, families in crisis, women facing unplanned pregnancies and any child that has experienced trauma.

Our efforts CONNECT organizations with each other and valuable resources, MOBILIZE the community to make a difference and EQUIP people to support kids in trauma-informed ways.
