Change Who Waits.

Ending the crisis In foster care.

The Background

Brian serves as co-founder and President of America’s Kids Belong (AKB). Hundreds of thousands of kids in the US foster care system are unseen and suffering, left to feel like they don’t belong. We dramatically improve their experience and change their outcomes by fighting for belonging in safe, loving families and supportive communities.

AKB brings together faith communities, government entities, business leaders, influencers, and the communities around them to join a life-changing movement where vulnerable kids find belonging and thrive.

Brian has written curriculum for national campaigns such as Bono’s “One Sabbath Campaign,” and World Vision’s “Faith in Action.” Brian and his wife Julie have two adult daughters, have been foster parents for years, and currently have a young man who aged out of foster care as part of their home.
