7 Days Remain for Current CFCRB Volunteers to completed the 2024 Self-Assessment Survey.

This assessment was designed by the CFCRB Diversity Committee to assist volunteers in thinking more deeply about issues and practices relating to racial and ethnic disparities, as well as helping to identify barriers which may contribute to the overrepresentation of children of color in foster care.
