Our Mission

“We Are Loved” is a New Jersey-based nonprofit dedicated to Empowering and Supporting Foster Youth and Resource Parents through community building, support groups, and partnerships. We work for a world where foster families in New Jersey feel supported and welcomed in a community of LOVE.


WE ARE A 501C3 & OUR TAX ID IS #84-2551194 



We are based in Monmouth and Ocean County New Jersey, and our amazing team of volunteers are committed to helping children and families in the Foster Care system through providing a variety of programs to help foster youth. From support groups to fundraisers, we provide a wide scope of resources necessary to the healthy and happy development of foster care families



Origin

  Phyllis A DiNardi, founder of “We Are Loved” has worked diligently for over 18 years advocating and fostering children. Her inspiration for "We Are Loved" came from the lack of support, empathy, and communication she had seen for the children in foster care as well as the foster parents.

Letter from the Founder

Foster care is a challenging and often overlooked aspect of our society. Foster children, who are often traumatized, require a special type of nurturing and care to overcome their difficulties and thrive. Fortunately, We Are Loved has stepped up to provide much-needed support and encouragement to foster communities.


We Are Loved is committed to supporting the foster community through empathy, training, and encouragement. One of the ways we accomplishes this is by holding regular meetings where resource parents can receive the training they need to provide the best possible care for their foster children. These meetings are also a great way for resource parents to connect with one another and build a community of support.


In addition to meetings, We Are Loved also provides outreach to foster children and their families. By partnering with other organizations and individuals, We Are Loved is able to provide resources and support to those who need it the most. Foster children and their families are often isolated and in need of connection, and We Are Loved works hard to bridge those gaps.


Another important aspect of We Are Loved is its focus on empathy. The organization understands that foster children have been through a lot and that it can be difficult for them to trust and connect with others. By offering a compassionate and understanding approach, We Are Loved is able to build trust with foster children and help them to feel loved and cared for.


Finally, We Are Loved recognizes the importance of partnerships in supporting the foster community. By working with other organizations and individuals, We Are Loved is able to provide a more robust set of resources and support to foster children and their families. Through these partnerships, We Are Loved is able to expand its reach and provide even more help to those who need it.


In conclusion, We Are Loved is doing important work in supporting the foster community. Through its focus on support, empathy, meetings, training, encouragement, outreach, foster children, resource parents, and partnerships, this organization is making a real difference in the lives of those who need it the most. If you are interested in supporting the foster community, consider getting involved with We Are Loved or another organization that focuses on this important issue. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of foster children and their families.
