The Mockingbird Society is a Seattle-based nonprofit focused on transforming foster care and addressing youth homelessness. It collaborates with young people who have lived through foster care or homelessness to shape policies, perceptions, and practices that affect access to safe, stable homes. Its work is grounded in the voices and experiences of youth, with programs that train participants to advocate for themselves and for policy change. The organization also runs family-focused programs, notably a foster-care framework called Mockingbird Family, which provides an extended-family network and is deployed internationally. The approach aims to innovate how foster care services are delivered and to transform the systems that impact thousands of children, youth, and families in Washington state and beyond. In 2026, the organization appointed Yvonne-Monique Aviva as Executive Director, reflecting leadership transition.
