Attendees can expect to enjoy a night filled with heartfelt testimonials from families fostering children and young adults who are navigating the transition from foster care to independence and adulthood.

Extraordinary Families, founded in partnership with the LGBTQIA+ community, welcomes all Los Angeles County residents over the age of 25 to apply to foster a child in need.
