About Clarvida of Illinois

Since 1972, we have been dedicated to enhancing the lives of children, families and communities. We strive to serve youth in foster care in hopes of reunification back to family to find their “forever homes” through guardianship or facilitating adoption. All of our services are thoughtfully designed to ensure children receive the most suitable care in the least restrictive setting, while also providing a strong support for youth in foster homes.

Client

“I love how I was able to freely talk with my teacher and how caring and understanding she was. I learned so much that I was and am able to apply to my parenting skills in real time. Also the lessons I learned have shown a difference in my own and my child’s behavior.”
