Developed in Washington and implemented around the world, MOCKINGBIRD FAMILYTM is an innovative, community-based model helping foster families and youth in care develop long-term supports and relationships. By developing small, extended family-like networks around a central family (Hub Home) and developing close relationships families and youth can access resources and supports in real-time. Families receive immediate supports from a familiar face who knows their youth and stories. Youth can be closer to siblings, develop relationships with multiple caring adults and build a community.
