Welcome!
FRIENDS Association for Children is a non-profit child and family agency that has served the Richmond, Virginia community since 1871.
FRIENDS began as a post Civil-War orphanage in historic North Jackson Ward. Today, it operates three multi-service, state-of-the-art family centers in neighborhoods where the opportunity to succeed does not come easy.
The mission of FRIENDS is to help children and families achieve their potential and become productive citizens.
