Every Child Deserves Someone in Their Corner

Imagine being a child whose world has suddenly changed. The adults around you are making decisions about where you will live, what happens next, and what your future may look like — while you are trying to make sense of circumstances no child should have to navigate alone.

For children involved in Connecticut’s child welfare system, Children in Placement provides something incredibly important: a consistent person who shows up.

A trained Guardian ad Litem Advocate gives a child a voice, works to understand their individual needs, and advocates for their best interests as they move through the child welfare and court systems.

For teens and young adults approaching independence, a Youth Sponsor can become the trusted mentor who listens, encourages, offers guidance, and helps them navigate the transition into adulthood.

These relationships can mean having someone who remembers the important milestones, asks the right questions, speaks up when something is being overlooked, and reminds a young person that their future matters.

That is what your gift to Children in Placement makes possible.

When you give through Flavors of Hope, you help CIP recruit, train, and support the dedicated volunteers who stand beside Connecticut’s abused, neglected, and at-risk children and youth — helping them move toward greater stability, opportunity, and brighter futures.

Tonight, you can be part of their story. Give generously and help ensure that more children have someone in their corner when they need it most.

Give Today. Change Tomorrow.
