Family Values
We work to improve the lives of children, young people and families in the UK. We do this by building solid foundations and spotting problems early.
This means parenting classes, nurseries and children’s centres. It’s providing breaks for young carers, and extra help for disabled children. It’s supporting young people at risk of homelessness.
We bring mental health workshops to schools. We’re there for parents who need advice. We find foster homes for children in need of a loving family. And we campaign for lasting change.
We're a vital lifeline for children and families.

AFS programs foster transformation that lasts a lifetime. Today’s exchange students are tomorrow’s changemakers: diplomats; thought leaders; influencers in the international business and non-profit communities. Every new exchange student is another global citizen in progress—an individual primed to help build a more just and peaceful world.
And the impact doesn’t stop with the students. Host families’ lives are transformed by new members from across the globe and host communities gain greater cultural diversity. That’s THE AFS EFFECT.

Growing a community of Americans empowered to lead with truth, reject extremism and misinformation, and defend democracy.
Americans who value family, tradition, and integrity have been abandoned by both major political parties and ignored by most of the media. We've seen families, friendships and faith groups torn apart by tribalism, partisanship and polarization.

Our vision is to transform young lives through the power of character mentoring. We work with schools and families to help young people unlock their potential, flourish in all areas of their lives, and contribute positively to their communities.
To achieve our vision we hold six core values. These shape and inform our work, and are fundamental to the way we treat every member of the Citywise family: children, parents and carers, volunteers, staff and other supporters.

Too many people have to risk their job to care for a loved one, or put a family member at risk to keep a job. We’re made to feel that this is a personal problem, but it’s political – family values too often end at the workplace door. We need new workplace standards to meet the needs of real families today.
The result will be better individual and public health, and greater financial security for families, businesses and the nation.
Our coalitions represent a diverse, nonpartisan group of more than 1,000 grassroots organizations, ranging from restaurant owners to restaurant workers, faith leaders to public health professionals, think tanks to activists for children, seniors and those with disabilities. Family Values @ Work coalitions are active in California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Texas, Vermont, Washington, Washington, D.C., and Wisconsin.
Formed in 2003, Family Values @ Work coalitions are winning. We’ve helped get paid sick days victories in San Francisco, Washington, D.C., Milwaukee, Seattle, and Portland as well as the state of Connecticut, family leave insurance laws in New Jersey and California, and paid parental leave in Washington state. These local and state wins are improving the lives of tens of thousands of working families and building national momentum for policies that value families at work.
