Our Vision: Families receive the support and resources needed to thrive in their cultures and communities. Our Mission: Durham Children's Aid Society works collaboratively with families, community members and service providers to overcome barriers to safe and healthy development of children and youth. We are governed by a volunteer Board of Directors.

From creating smiles to lending a helping hand, our volunteers hope to continue making a difference one moment at a time. #NVW2024
