Being a Part of a Large Anti-poverty Movement
Skookum Kids is a foster care agency based in Bellingham Washington. We operate an emergency shelter, train & license foster families, and provide abuse-prevention and foster care alternative programming services. We believe foster care, like most hard things, is best done with a supportive community; so we work to find ways for everyone—from trained mental health professionals to teenagers—to roll up their sleeves and get involved.
