- Promoting partnership between everyone involved in foster care to work for, and in the best interests of the child in care.
- Providing support and learning opportunities for persons involved in foster care in Ireland.
- Creating a greater public awareness of and promoting foster care in Ireland.
- Advocating for excellence for all involved in foster care.
