Lifecare Coalition Outreach-Foster Family Agency (LCCO-FFA)

Organization Description

The LCCO-FFA program is formally constituted to care for children/youths in the foster care system using the best tested, approved, and recommended practices. The underlying force and main objective of the agency’s treatment philosophy are to provide quality service to foster children/youths by employing the following wise adage: “It takes a village to raise a child.” The concept to care for foster children/youth under the stated golden rule of involving the community made sense to the initial group of professionals that brought LCCO-FFA into being.
