Mission: For more than 100 years, Arizona’s Children Association (AzCA) has stayed true to “Protecting Children, Empowering Youth, Strengthening Families,” serving more than 42,000 children, individuals and families in all 15 counties in the state each year. Arizona’s Children Association provides a myriad of programs, across every county in the state, each tailored to the needs of the particular child, individual or family. Arizona’s Children Association is one of the oldest and largest not-for-profit child welfare and behavioral health agencies in Arizona. We believe that every child deserves a permanent home that is safe and nurturing and we strive toward that goal. All programs are family focused, strength based, culturally sensitive and outcome driven. At AzCA, 90 cents of every dollar is spent on programs and services and we have been recognized by The Business Journal as one of Arizona’s top-ranking charitable organizations. We also maintain a number of accreditations, state licenses and organization memberships that allow the agency to remain on the leading edge of child welfare and behavioral health issues in Arizona and the country. AzCA is licensed by the Arizona Departments of Behavioral Health and Economic Security and nationally accredited by the Council on Accreditation (COA) and Better Business Bureau.

Traumatic experience.
The high turn over rate is not their concern.
The wages are low but the abuse is high and easier for them to maintain.

Worked with them when I had foster kids and they where amazing! They have great people who worked with me and where always positive. I always knew about upcoming events and volunteer work. I will continue to use them in the future and volunteer at their events. #greatNP14

Too much turnover. Too many good counselors that move on. I've found them at other agencies and transferred my kids. Seems really disorganized and not like people are happy to work there. Sorry.

Need help?
