Meet Our Chapter
Welcome to Safe Families for Children – Serving the Quad Cities in both Iowa and Illinois!
Together we can help families in crisis! We’ve been present in the Quad Cities since 2005. Safe Families surrounds families in crisis with a caring and compassionate community. We work quickly to connect children with a volunteer family. Our goal is to keep kids safe and families intact. Once a parent’s life has stabilized and the home environment is healthy, we work with parents to reunite their family as soon as possible. We can support families (upon volunteer availablity) in Rock Island, Henry, Mercer, parts of Whiteside counties in Illinois and Scott, Muscatine, Clinton, Jackson, Des Moines counties in Iowa.
Fundraising Gala 2024! Our theme this year is “Making A Way”. Please join us for evening of stories of impact and opportunity to give to the work we are doing in the greater Quad City region! Register for “Making a Way” Gala 2024
