About us
KID is a nationally accredited agency dedicated to the prevention of child abuse, the preservation of the family, and the treatment of abused and neglected children. Founded in 1979, KID started as a shelter for abused and neglected children. During its 43 operational years, KID has grown to include two campuses in Broward County, and a foster care office in Palm Beach County. In 2019, KID acquired Family Central, Inc. (FCI) which provides comprehensive family strengthening, early learning, a child care food program, and educational training services in South Florida. KID offers a well-integrated system of care staffed with clinical professionals who tenaciously strive to encourage, educate, empower, and equip children and families with the proper tools to ensure a safe and strong community. By advancing critical and clinical care to at-risk children and families in need, KID is known as the premier provider of child and family services in South Florida and now serves more than 20,000 children and families annually. KID employees enrich the South Florida community through foster care recruitment/training/support, kinship support, early childhood education/preschool, aftercare/summer camp, adoption support, reunification services, family strengthening, maternal health, a family counseling center, and pediatric dental services in partnership with Nova Southeastern University.

Our amazing 25+ year KID Board Member Lesley Mitchell Jones was honored this month as a Community Foundation of Broward "Community Builder." There are only SIXTY Community Builders, all of whom have endowed over $1,000,000 with The Community Foundation. Lesley has been a beacon of hope and impact to so many South Florida children both through her philanthropic investments and one-on-one mentoring and tutoring to those children who need it most. Join us in congratulating and recognizing Lesley as a true hero in our community as we all strive to "live out" her favorite quote, "The meaning of our life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away" Thank you, Lesley, for your selfless generosity toward the most vulnerable of our community. #communityleaders #impact #serve #imagine #investing #improve

Did you know? Kinship caregivers across Broward County are often family members or close friends who have taken on the responsibility of raising someone else’s child with little notice and limited resources. Our Kinship Support Program is here to help them navigate the challenges of accessing medical care, public benefits, social services, and more. This Kinship Month, let's recognize and support these everyday heroes who step in to provide love and stability when it's needed most. The Kinship Support Program is a collaboration between Kids In Distress, Memorial Healthcare System, and Legal Aid of Broward County. The Children's Services Council of Broward County funds the program. #KinshipMonth #September #KidsInDistress
