Starting over 20 years ago, Generations United, in partnership with The Brookdale Foundation Group, AARP,  ABA Center on Children and the LawCasey Family Programs, ChildFocus, Children's Defense Fund and the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption created GrandFacts for grandfamilies in each state and the District of Columbia.  Generations United's Grandfamilies & Kinship Support Network: A National Technical Assistance Center (Network) is now updating existing GrandFacts upon request and has been creating new ones, including for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The Network, in partnership with the National Indian Child Welfare Association (NICWA), has also created 8 Tribal GrandFacts. If at any time you have an addition or other change that you'd like to request to any of the GrandFacts, please email grandfamilies@gu.org.
