Connect Our Kids is a nonprofit based in Falls Church, Virginia, dedicated to improving outcomes for vulnerable children by developing technology tools that support child welfare professionals. The organization emphasizes that while technology is not a stand-alone solution, it can amplify the effectiveness of practitioners by automating searches, scanning databases, and guiding decision-making through observed matching and record-keeping processes. Its work centers on scaling family search and engagement practices within the child welfare system to help locate loving families and establish support networks for children in foster care. The firm positions itself within the nonprofit sector focused on child welfare, aiming to bring modern, data-informed approaches to a system the organization views as inadequately served, with a stated mission to raise awareness about the nearly 500,000 children in foster care. Recent activity includes participation in RootsTech 2023, reflecting ongoing engagement with relevant communities and events.
