Friends of the Children Seattle

Friends of the Children commits to standing alongside our community's youth as they work to overcome barriers to their success. Each child receives 1:1 support and guidance from a paid professional mentor (called a friend), from kindergarten through high school graduation-12+ years, no matter what. Friends work collaboratively with high-priority youth and their caregivers to set and achieve individualized goals, as well as advocate for them in the school, child welfare, healthcare, and other systems that impact them.
