Family is possible, and children belong in families. I have been equipped to become a changemaker in my country, to advocate that children should be in families. I used to think orphanages were the only option for children to be safe or to thrive. But I’ve come to realize… families are possible, and they are the best place for children.

Elizabeth Mark Alternative Care Manager, Back-to-Back Ministries Nigeria

"My message for others working in this space has always been, and probably always will be, that you are not alone. This can be a lonely field and is a supremely challenging one. The fellowship that the CAFO Research Center fosters is one deeply needed in our field and helps people feel not-alone."

Ian Forber-Pratt, MSW Deputy Executive Director, Children's Emergency Relief International (CERI)

"The Bible instructs us to take care of orphans. It also instructs us that we do this out of love and that the love Jesus showed us is our example. But the details aren’t there, and because children are so valuable and so vulnerable, we have to look for the best information on how we can take care of them the best way."

Dr. Dana Johnson Professor of Pediatrics, University of Minnesota
