Who We Are
Tuesday's Children, a non profit family service organization founded by families and friends of 9/11 victims, made a long term commitment to meet the needs of every family who lost a loved one in the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001.
We foster community among families and provide programs and services designed to help them move forward in their lives. Tuesday's Children has garnered the families' trust while gaining an intimate understanding of the problems and realities in the days, months and years after a tragedy. Armed with this knowledge, Tuesday's Children is able to address the unique challenges our families face at every stage of their lives.
Leadership
Our Board of Directors represents a diverse group of professionals and family members impacted by 9/11. Board members share common goals, including recruiting sponsors, investigating sources of funding, directing policy and procedures, and raising public awareness of our commitment to the Tuesday's Children mission. Meet them here.

Our programs include: Family Engagement, Mentoring, Child, Adolescent and Young Adult Programs, Helping Heals, Adult Programs, Project Common Bond, Counseling Services and the First Responder Alliance.

Who We Serve
In any tragedy, we memoralize those who are lost; but we must never lose sight of, and do all we can for, those who are left, for they are our most important living memorials, and can become our most valuable ambassadors. Tuesday's Children serves all members of the 9/11 community including, but not limited to, children, spouses and young adults. We link families with similar experiences, which has a profound and positive impact on their collective healing.
In recent years, we have expanded to provide programs, advocacy, workshops and counseling services to rescue and recovery workers such as policeman, firemen, volunteers and their families through the First Responder Alliance.
We have globally extended our services with Project Common Bond, a program designed to bring together international communities of young adults whose lives were drastically affected by acts of terrorism.
