Adoption Options, a leading inclusive adoption and family services organization serving Colorado for over 43 years, announced today the expansion of its transformative Fostering Healthy Futures program. The expansion will double the program’s capacity and extend services to youth ages 9-15, responding to a critical need in the Denver metro area.
Every child touched by the child welfare system deserves the opportunity to find permanency and build the skills needed for lifelong success,” said Megan McLean, Executive Director of Adoption Options. “By expanding Fostering Healthy Futures, we’re not just growing a program – we’re creating more pathways to stability for vulnerable youth in our community.”
The Fostering Healthy Futures program, developed in partnership with the University of Colorado, and the Kempe Center, has demonstrated remarkable success in supporting youth in foster care and kinship care. Research shows program participants are:
- Five times more likely to find permanent placement within one year
- Significantly more likely to graduate high school
- Less likely to require ongoing mental health support
- Better equipped with emotional regulation and social skills
