Curious about us? Come for a 1-hour tour. Visit the award-winning Intergenerational Treehouse Community in Easthampton, MA. This diverse neighborhood brings families adopting children from foster care together with caring older adults who volunteer their time and talents, becoming honorary grandparents.
Not a New Englander? Join the Re-Envisioning Foster Care in America Movement (REFCA) to get involved in other ways. REFCA welcomes people of all ages and backgrounds to invest in the lives, educational success, dreams and futures of children and youth who experience foster care in their local communities.
