National Foster Care Association Malta is about caring for children in care who are part and parcel of the local community and tomorrow’s generation. Their mission is to work with all those involved in fostering in order to achieve the best outcomes for children and young people. NFCAM strives to achieve better living conditions for children and youth in residential care, by working in close collaboration with local government agencies and individuals in the field of foster care. NFCAM also supports local foster carers encouraging them to share experiences and ideas for the full benefit of the children and youth in care. NFCAM was founded in November 2005. Since its foundation, the association had the intention to unite all national foster carers together, with the ultimate goal that a friendly forum is created, so that foster families will share their experiences and ideas, and eventually the children in care will benefit.

General Programming
NFCAM's foster cares, foster care team and members work hard to bring kids the peace they need by meeting their basic needs of safety and belonging, while encouraging their healthy emotional and social well-being. NFCAM provides a platform and a voice for foster carers and children in care to benefit from the safety and nurturing of the foster homes that have been chosen just for them. In return, foster carers receive training and support, as well as government financial support to cover some of the foster children’s expenses.
