Last fiscal year (July 1, 2021-June 30, 2022), Aviva delivered comprehensive care across four core program areas, offering healing, renewal, and hope to some 3,200 clients. Aviva’s capacity to improve children’s lives and build stronger, more cohesive families for resilience and permanency was demonstrated in the impact our programs had in the lives of nearly 6,400 children, their parents, caregivers, family, and household members.
We are also dedicated to lifting up and amplifying the voices of the families we serve. We are committed to advancing equity and inclusion in all aspects of our work. As such, Aviva established a Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Committee (JEDI) to identify opportunities and lead initiatives such as the analysis of internal diversity data and internal systems to promote greater inclusion. With JEDI Committee leadership, we seek ways to foster safe environments, support and advocate for people of all racial, ethnic, religious, and gender identities, faiths, and abilities, and those who identify as LGBTQ+, both internally, with clients, partners, and in the community at large.

Requirements to become a foster parent
Many do not realize the need for new resource families in California. The number of foster kids outnumber the foster families who can provide short or long-term care. Foster advocates work hard to find places for these children, but it is not easy.
The latest 2021 report from the Adoption and Foster Care Analysis and Reporting System (AFCARS) report in California says there are:
- 47,871 kids in California's foster care system
- 22,892 who entered foster care
- 15,386 foster kids awaiting adoption
- California foster kids across all ages, with a median of 8 years
- 33% whose foster child case plans include adoption
A child's median time in the California foster care system is over a year at 16.8 months. 13% spend 3-4 years in foster care.
California needs foster parents to take in multiple children if they have the time and energy to care for them. Sibling groups often need care, and it is essential to support these family bonds. In California, it is challenging to find homes for teenagers, though they need stable environments and reliable adults to support them.

Lived here when it was just an all girls adolescent group home. Bear thing about it was the therapy/mentorship. The staff sucked and instead of wanting to be a better person they made u hate life as if it wasn't a mess already.
