Child Welfare

The Phoenix Project

Child Abuse Prevention Program (CAPP) Families Are Stronger Together (FAST) Family Services for Deaf Children and Adults Foster Care Healthy Families Improving Family Systems LifeSet Mother and Child Program Partners for Change The Phoenix Project Staten Island Community Partnership Strengthening Our Families Strengthening, Teaching, and Educating People through Support (STEP-S) Youth on the Rise

The Foundling’s Phoenix Project uses mentoring and evidence-based models to support survivors of human trafficking and young people at risk of trafficking as they work to attain stability and independence.

Taking a survivor-centered approach that focuses on lived experience, the program works with children and young adults to address both the impact of trafficking and the risk factors that can lead to exploitation.

Each Phoenix Project participant is assigned a mentor, who provides intensive case management under the Eisenhower Quantum Opportunities Program model. Depending on individual needs and goals, participants may also receive Cognitive Processing Therapy, a therapeutic model that leads trauma survivors to challenge unhealthy beliefs and move forward, and sex education though the Health Improvement Intervention for Teens (HIP Teens) model, a risk-reduction group intervention that specifically targets building healthy relationships and improving the health and psychosocial potential of participants around their own sexual health and decision-making. The program also offers wraparound supports, and participants will be connected to other Foundling services and other community-based systems for assistance attaining necessities and attaining life goals.

Success Stories

Providing community support during the pandemic

Our Staten Island Community Partnership and Healthy Families programs have come together to help keep our neighbors in the North Shore section of Staten Island healthy and safe throughout the pandemic. One of their largest initiatives is a weekly grocery giveaway program that has provided 100 families with essential items, including fruits, vegetables, protein-rich foods, toiletries, and more. Thanks to collaboration with community institutions and businesses – from churches to laundromats – our impassioned team engages with local residents and families to ensure that all of our neighbors have access to the resources they need.
