Christian Bale Launches Foster Care Village To Keep Siblings Together In Los Angeles
Oscar-winning actor Christian Bale is spearheading a philanthropic initiative in California called Together California, aimed at keeping siblings together in the foster care system. Recognizing that up to 75% of siblings in U.S. foster care are separated, Bale partnered with foster care expert Tim McCormick to create a village in Los Angeles where siblings can live together in group homes with trained foster parents. Construction began in February 2024, with the site planned to include homes, apartments, a community center, gardens, and recreational areas, fostering a supportive environment for children. Bale emphasizes that improving foster care requires empathy and a societal commitment to caring for children, noting the compounded trauma siblings face when separated after removal from their parents. Inspired by his own reflections on parenthood, Bale envisions this project as a lasting contribution to society that changes the narrative around foster care. The initiative represents a unique approach to addressing the challenges faced by children in foster care by prioritizing family unity and community support.
