Corporate & Institutional Giving
Partner with the Research That Changes the System.
AFOC offers companies, foundations, and law firms a meaningful opportunity to invest in independent, nonpartisan research that protects children and improves the systems that shape their lives.
The Case for Partnership
Why Organizations Partner with AFOC
Corporate and institutional partners gain more than recognition — they gain a stake in the research infrastructure that will define the future of family law.
Credible, Independent Research
AFOC conducts nonpartisan, evidence-based research free from the influence of litigation outcomes. Your support funds work that courts, policymakers, and media will cite for years.
Mission-Aligned Brand Visibility
Association with children's welfare and judicial accountability resonates across the political spectrum. Partner recognition reaches a motivated, engaged, and growing audience of families, advocates, and legal professionals.
Policy & Thought Leadership Access
Sponsor-level partners receive exclusive briefings, early access to research findings, and invitations to roundtables with AFOC's advisory board and research leadership.
Community of Purpose
Join a growing coalition of organizations — law firms, family services companies, philanthropic foundations, and socially responsible businesses — committed to systemic change for children and families.
Measurable Impact
Sponsors receive detailed annual impact reports showing exactly how funds were deployed: datasets acquired, reports published, webinar attendees reached, and policy conversations informed.
CSR & ESG Alignment
Supporting AFOC's work satisfies community investment, social responsibility, and ESG commitments — particularly for firms in legal services, family law, financial planning, and child-focused sectors.
The data AFOC is building will be the first comprehensive, independent record of how family courts operate — and how they affect the children whose lives depend on them.
