                                                            1. To bring together foster and adoptive families whose professional knowledge and expertise can orchestrate beneficial change for children and families.

                                                            2. To refocus recruitment, selection, preparation and development of foster and adoptive families in order to produce a pool of professional parents qualified to provide a high level of therapeutic care to abused and neglected children.
