Support for Foster Parents
Being a foster parent is a rewarding—and challenging—job. Learn about your role and the resources available to help you succeed
When a child or sibling group is placed in your home, a journey begins that can last anywhere from overnight to several months. After the immediate safety of the child has been addressed, the next priority is reunifying the child with the family from which he was removed. Slightly more than half of all children who go into foster care return to their families.
