Who We Serve

We serve all children with active and open cases in the dependency system. This includes children in foster care, guardianship, kinship, Marin kids living out of the county, out of county kids living in Marin, and Non-Minor Dependents. These families can visit the Community Resource Center (CRC) and pick up items, AT NO COST, for the children in their care. Social workers can also shop or request items from the CRC for children with active cases who are in family preservation and family maintenance.
 

Families who adopt or establish guardianship continue to receive ALL services and funding for 12 months following the finalization date. After that first year, ongoing support includes: 

​

• CRC Shopping Visits: Once per month (additional visits available upon request)

• Seasonal Support: Back to school items/shoes and holidays or shopping days

• FITT Counseling: Available at $50 per session

• Annual Funding: $1,000 per child each year through the Opportunity Project (OP) or Summer Fun program

• Vehicle Fund: Youth may use up to $2,000 toward a car purchase (available until age 18 and high school graduation - or 19 if not yet graduated unless they enter ILP)
