WFAPA
For over 53 years, the Wisconsin Foster and Adoptive Parent Association, Inc. has been a vital resource for foster, adoptive, and kinship families in Wisconsin. As a non-profit organization, we are dedicated to improving access to information, resources, training, and support for these families while also advocating on their behalf.

“We live in a world in which we need to share responsibility. It’s easy to say, ‘It’s not my child, not my community, not my world, not my problem.’ Then there are those who see the need and respond. I consider those people my heroes.”
– Fred Rogers
