TRAC Services for Families is a nonprofit organization based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, that operates in the field of individual and family services. It functions as a United Way Agency with origins dating to 1979, when it began as a volunteer project of the Junior League of Pittsburgh founded by adoptive parents and professionals. The organization serves as a central resource for adoption information, referrals, support, and education, and it seeks to broaden permanency opportunities for children awaiting permanency across the state. It collaborates with public and private agencies to recruit families, place children who cannot remain with their birth families, and provide post-placement and educational services to families and professionals.

TRAC adheres to permanency standards set by the Child Welfare League of America and offers a range of services, including recruitment, information and referral, counseling, family preparation, post-adoption services, and education for parents and professionals. The children served come from diverse backgrounds, with many being older, part of sibling groups, or having emotional, physical, or mental disabilities, and they often have histories of multiple moves in foster care and experiences of abuse or neglect. Through cooperative, cost-effective programs with public and private agencies, the organization supports placement and post-placement needs for these children and their families.
