With nearly 200 children in Foster Care in Kenosha County on any given day, there is an immediate need for more licensed foster homes! Could that home be yours?
What is Foster Care? Foster Care is for children who require placement outside of their home. The need for foster care can be due to abuse, neglect, parents’ inability to meet the needs of a child, or for other reasons that prevent the parents from providing care. Placing children into foster care is meant to be temporary and allows the parents to make the necessary changes so that the children can be reunified. Reunification is the primary goal of foster care.
Who can become a foster parent? You must be a minimum of 21 years of age, can be single or married, own or rent, be in good physical health, financially stable, meet space requirements required by law, pass background checks, and have access to transportation.
