There are many children in need of foster homes. The children needing foster homes through Child Protective Services are:
- Children and youth who have been abused, neglected, and/or abandoned.
- Children and youth ranging in age from 0-22 years of all ethnic, cultural, and racial backgrounds.
- Sibling groups who need to be place in the same foster or adoptive home, or who are not placed together but need to have regular contact with each other.
- Children and youth with disabilities and special needs, including, but not limited to psychological, medical, and physical diagnoses.
What is Foster Care?
Being a foster parent means temporarily caring for and nurturing many children over time. It also means working as a partner, both with the agency and birth parents, in order to help reunify a child with their biological family after the issues which caused the child to be placed into foster care are resolved.

Foster Care Information Sessions will be conducted at 4:30 and 6:00. Each session will be about 40 minutes. All of the attending foster care agencies will be on hand to answer questions and provide information about the steps to become a foster parent. No reservations needed, just come and join us!
