Eternal Routes

Eternal Routes Eternal Routes helps youth find their relatives and develop lifelong connections.

The RAFT's Eternal Routes program is a family unification program based on the Family Finding model developed by California Permanency for Youth Project (CYPY). Eternal Routes connects youth unable to live with their parents and Crown wards aging out of foster care with relatives who would be willing to provide the youth with the support they need to transition into adulthood and avoid homelessness.

It took 16 years for Jordan to hug his biological mother again!!!

He was only 5 years old when he last saw her. 16 years later he came across the Eternal Routes program and he was interested in locating her. Amanda, Eternal Routes Worker searched and searched and at last…they have been reunited!

If you’re interested in finding a loved one, please contact Amanda through our RAFT services.

After 20 years of not knowing her biological father, Kasey had the opportunity to meet him on November 5th, 2014 at The Grounds Coffeehouse + Bakery in St. Catharines. A few months later, she moved in with him, his wife, and half sister and began building their relationship. On July 28th, 2017 Kasey gets MARRIED at the beautiful Delphi Banquet Facility in Niagara Falls. I had the pleasure seeing her walk down the aisle with her amazing father who has been by her side from day one. Later that evening, her biological father gave a heart wrenching speech to express his appreciation to his new relationship with his daughter and wish the newly weds a lifetime of happiness.
