Katherine Adams's Company Details
Connect Our Kids creates free technology tools to make life-changing connections for vulnerable children. We salute child welfare professionals and believe they should have the most innovative technology at their fingertips to find loving families and support networks for vulnerable children. We recognize that technology alone is not a solution.Instead, we pair technology tools and forward-leaning child welfare professionals with active software that automates searches, scours databases, makes use of algorithmic matching, presents choices for the decision-maker, and records decisions made. We also raise awareness of the nearly 500,000 children in foster care and the system that we as citizens have provided for them. These children are our kids, not those kids, not someone else's responsibility, but ours, and we are not serving them adequately. The foster care system is a direct pipeline to human trafficking, prison, and homelessness. We know America can do better. Connect Our Kids uses technology to scale up family search and engagement practices for child welfare professoinals. We hope that you join the movement to bring child welfare into the 21st century.
