Our Team

The Louisiana Foster and Adoptive Parent Association is a 501c3 nonprofit organization that was created to serve foster parents, adoptive parents and the children in their care.  We are led by a board of directors consisting of foster/adoptive parents from across the state.

The vision of LFAPA is that every foster and adoptive family in Louisiana has a support system to call upon to strengthen family relationships, restore enthusiasm, and to create a sense of empowerment when parenting a foster or adopted child.

The mission of LFAPA is to see that every foster and adoptive parent receives the support and education needed to effectively and compassionately parent foster and adoptive children as a team.
