A Better Chance for Our Children is dedicated to providing permanency for children. We focus on finding families for waiting children, most from foster care and many with special needs. We believe that through education and support, families can develop the skills necessary to provide a stable, nurturing environment for these children. We prioritize this training and support so that waiting children have a better chance of overcoming the trauma they have experienced. We believe that all children deserve a chance to be the best people they can be and, to achieve this, it is in a child’s best interest to be with a properly trained and supportive family.

Cindy offers support to children and families as they explore their foster care/adoption journey. She has 5+ years of nonprofit experience and joined ABC in 2023.
When Cindy was 5, she was pretty sure that she would be a Pediatric Neuromuscular Doctor when she grew up, until she was old enough to understand the amount of schooling that would be required of her.
Venus’ role includes supporting connections between children and families of all types. After leaving corporate America in 2007, Venus worked with individuals experiencing mental health challenges, domestic violence, and homelessness before joining the ABC team in 2022.
In another life, Venus is pretty sure she was a (rich) socialite.
Sharia joined ABCFOC in 2021, driven by a passion for helping others. She previously volunteered with AmeriCorps and worked at Habitat for Humanity.
At 5, Sharia was pretty sure she’d be a lawyer when she grew up, but she\’s grateful for her psychology education & current career.
