You can make a difference in the life of an Alaskan child or youth in care!

Did you know more than 3,000 Alaskan children and youth are in State or Tribal care? Now in our 31st year, FACC provides support and opportunities for children and youth in care that they may not otherwise have. FACC is an all-volunteer organization committed to creating the greatest possible opportunity for success through advocacy and direct supports. We encourage grant applications on behalf children and youth in care by the child/youth’s CASA, GAL, Tribal representative, or OCS case worker at the links below. And we hope you will consider supporting our work!

A 5th grade girl was on my CASA caseload, along with her older and younger siblings.  Her wish was to take piano lessons, at least for the summer, so she’d have some music knowledge and skill before participating in 6th grade band or orchestra. Her foster parents were willing to drive her to the lessons, but couldn’t afford to pay for them.  I found a piano studio in Anchorage that was willing to take her for just the summer. Friends of Alaska’s Children in Care paid for her lessons, giving her a great start towards a future in playing the viola. Thank you!
