Foster Care Program

Foster care offers a partnership between the agency and foster parents towards meeting the needs of a child while they are living away from their own family. This program works cooperatively with foster parents and the child’s own family to develop a plan to meet the child’s needs and to reunite the child with their own family whenever possible.
