Children’s Network of Hillsborough County (CNHC) is a beacon of hope for children and families in our community and beyond. Our story of service began on July 1, 2022, when we became the lead community-based care agency for Florida’s 13th Judicial Circuit (Hillsborough County). As lead agency, we oversee a coordinated system of care, including foster care, adoption, case management, and abuse prevention. CNHC also strengthens families through initiatives like our Intensive Family Services Team (IFST), keeping children out of foster care whenever possible.

CNHC has quickly emerged as a statewide leader. Our revitalization of local child welfare has led to far fewer children being removed from their homes, thousands of youth receiving IFST prevention services, and many hundreds of reunified families and adopted children. But we need your help to create brighter futures for our children and families. From foster parenting to adoption, volunteering to donations, every individual and organization can partner with us to change lives for good!
