Eckerd Connects provides services to help children in group homes or shelters make the transition to a safe, more permanent home environment. For each of the young people referred by state agencies, Eckerd Connects conducts diligent searches nationwide for family members or supportive adults who might become a connection with that youth, and ideally enable them to be placed in a more nurturing home setting. Services include follow-up to support the youth and the new family or individual identified to care for them.
