Vision
NAZCA exists to empower, advocate, and support at-risk children and their families/foster families in Gila County and provide them with the tools and resources necessary to grow into resilient, connected, and impactful adults.
Mission Statement
NAZCA will step in to provide material support (clothing, school supplies, safety and childproofing materials, food) as well as licensing and emotional support (continuing education training, support groups) for families and children impacted by foster care. We will advocate for better access to services and therapies for children experiencing acute and chronic trauma and behaviors resulting from the neglect and abuse they may have suffered.
​
​NAZCA aims to be the leading nonprofit for foster children and their families servicing Gila County.
"NAZCA was an absolutely life saver when I became kinship placement for my 2 day old nephew. They went out of their way to make sure I had everything I needed plus more to be prepared when bringing my nephew home from the hospital the very next day! So blessed to have crossed paths with them. Thank you to NAZCA for all you do!"
