Kids & Families Together is a not-for-profit organization in mental health care that serves as a resource for individuals and families involved with foster care, kinship care, and adoption. It provides education, counseling, and support aimed at preserving families and promoting the physical, emotional, and mental health of children through attachment-focused interventions. The group operates from San Buenaventura, California, and began serving the community on January 1, 2000, after local stakeholders identified gaps in Ventura County's services for foster, kinship, and adoptive families. Its services address children who have experienced trauma, abuse, neglect, loss, or multiple placements, while also equipping parents and caregivers with education, practical support, and strategies to raise safe, healthy, nurturing children. Within the mental health care field, the organization functions as a community-based resource focused on family preservation and child well-being in Ventura County. In line with its community role, it partnered with Heart 2 Heart to host an annual Back to School Donation Drive for foster/resource, kinship, and adopted children in the county through August 10, 2019.
