Starting with yours. Whatever your skill set, if you're committed to helping create stable, caring connections for foster youth, A Home Within can put your talent and energy to good use.

A Home Within is a national network of volunteer mental health professionals who provide for the emotional needs of foster children. We operate 50 chapters in 22 states, with each chapter's therapists supported locally by a Clinical Director and Consultation Group Leader. Click here to find a Local Chapter near you.
What We Do:
A Home Within matches current and former foster kids with licensed volunteer therapists who provide weekly pro-bono therapy.

A Home Within is the only national organization focused exclusively on meeting the emotional needs of foster youth.

Seeking Therapists
We recruit qualified therapists who volunteer to see one foster child, teen, or young adult in weekly pro-bono therapy - for 'as long as it takes.' If you are a therapist interested in helping this group, we’d love to match you with a child, teen, or young adult in need.
