Mockingbird Society

The Mockingbird Society is dedicated to transforming the foster care system and ending youth homelessness by empowering young people with lived experience to lead advocacy efforts and drive systemic change. Our grant will support Mockingbird’s efforts to expand youth-led advocacy, enhance policy implementation, and scale the MOCKINGBIRD FAMILY™ model statewide. This investment will improve placement stability, foster parent retention, and public funding integration, ensuring that young people in Washington’s child welfare system have the resources, relationships, and opportunities to thrive.
