Mission

The Queen Esther Program builds families and community where children thrive.

Vision

The Queen Esther Program mission is to create a community of support that reduces the need for DCF involvement;  increase stability and shorten the stay of children in care, and provide an environment centered on promoting the well-being, body, mind and spirit of a child so that they may fulfill their prophetic destiny
