Care for the Caregivers Who Care for Our Youth
At Everstand, we believe our greatest strength is our people—the youth care professionals, case managers, therapists, teachers, and support staff who pour their hearts into guiding, supporting, and lifting up the young people in our care.
This Giving Tuesday, we are focusing on them.
Our staff show up every day to meet the complex needs of youth and families who have experienced trauma, disruption, and unimaginable challenges. They bring compassion, skill, patience, and unwavering dedication to every moment—and they do so in a field where burnout is all too common. In fact, recent national research shows that nearly 65% of child-welfare professionals experience work-related burnout due to the intensity of the work and the organizational stressors surrounding it.
Yet even in the face of these challenges, our Everstand team continues to stand strong.
Your Giving Tuesday gift is an opportunity to stand beside them.
