Today, we launch Every Child Indiana!
30+ organizations and the State of Indiana have gone “all IN” to link arms and reimagine how we find an ideal placement for every child in foster care.
Led by The Contingent Indiana Executive Director, Akilah Webster, and a team of geniuses at our National HQ, our team has assumed responsibility for foster family recruitment for Indiana.
Know of any Hoosiers wanting to get INvolved?
Check out: everychildindiana.org
All IN!

The future of The Contingent is going to be powered by a radical four-prong commitment to:
1. Digital strategy and marketing
2. Technology
3. Community Experience (CX)
4. Research and Evaluation
These four functions come together to shape what we call the Community Collider. I am thrilled to announce that we have brought on a new Chief Innovation Officer, Steven McIntosh, to run it.
It’s gonna get crazy, folks. The future is tech-driven, and the future is bright!
