Mission
To empower children affected by parental substance use by providing tools to build resilience, lifelong skills, and connection to caring communities.
Vision
A world where every child has the strength, connection, and support to thrive across all stages of life.

What We're Working On
Our Approach
Nature and Nutrition
We believe that access to nature, healthy food, and hands-on experiences can strengthen resilience and support children's emotional well-being. We are exploring partnerships that will help bring these opportunities to children and families.
Animal Assisted Healing
Positive interactions with animals can foster connection, trust, and emotional safety. As YURA Fund grows, we hope to incorporate animal-assisted experiences through community partnerships.
Resilience and Emotional Skills
We are developing evidence-informed resources and future programming designed to help children build emotional awareness, self-regulation, confidence, and healthy relationships.
