About
About Eagle's Wings Cares
Eagle’s Wings CARES, Inc provides kinship care and positive life-changing resources to Indiana children and families. We are a registered nonprofit with a 501(c)(3) in Indiana.
Child welfare systems typically focus on the parents, child, and caregiver independently; however, in kinship care, the entire family and extended family unit are served collectively. Kinship Care is an inclusive family approach.
Eagles Wings hopes to empower families and groups through providing supported informed kinship placement and supported Kinship Care Services.
