About us

The Kinship & Foster Family Network of Manitoba is a non-profit, charitable organization focused on grassroots community development opportunities to enhance the lives of kinship & foster families.Through a province-wide network, kinship & foster parents receive training, guidance and assistance, often provided by other kinship & foster parents within the community.

Organizational Beliefs

At The Kinship & Foster Family Network of Manitoba we believe in the: Empowerment of Kinship and Foster Parents to be respected members of the professional team, and we strive to provide training and supports that will assist you in achieving this goal.

Kinship and Foster Care works best when following the Principles of Addition:

Always add rather than subtract people from a child’s life.

Adding people always expands the circle of support.

The birth family always remains at the center of the circle.

A kinship or foster family is not the center of the circle but a valuable complementary addition to the birth family.

Our mission

To encourage, promote, assist, and educate foster and kinship homes to enhance the quality of life for children in care.
