Beyond the basic needs of clothing, shopping for and choosing your own clothing is an important personal agency to pick what you wear as an act of self-expression, identity, and control. It promotes emotional well-being, allows for creative self-definition, and fosters independence and confidence, particularly in children. 

Friends of Forgotten Children maintains the Clothing Closet, an area of our facility that distributes seasonal, gently-used clothing, shoes, and accessories to clients in need.

The FOFC clothing closet can be “shopped” on Thursdays.
