OUR PHILOSOPHY Every child has the right to a secure, loving, permanent family. OUR GOAL To avoid the harmful effects suffered by young children in prolonged foster care with multiple moves. OUR STRATEGY To provide family reunification services that actively involve the birth parents in planning and decision making for their children. We recruit foster families that can become adoptive families when necessary.

GUIDEBOOK & VIDEO SERIES
Lutheran Community Services Northwest (formerly Lutheran Social Services of Washington and Idaho) has applied over 20 years of experience in Permanency Planning to develop a comprehensive collection of resource materials. We’re happy to make these resource materials available to other child welfare agencies and professionals.
