How to Become a Foster Parent

New Item Name

1.) We want you to be well informed and there are many ways of accomplishing that. You can finish reading this website on foster parenting, as it addresses many questions asked about foster parenting, OR, you can telephone us at the number listed below if you choose to speak to a foster care specialist. OR, we can schedule a visit to your home to review all the information in person. We welcome the opportunity to address any concerns you may have.

2.) Request an application for foster parenting. We will make an appointment with you for a home visit.

3.) That home visit will begin the "study" of your home as a potential foster home. CSC staff will help you through the recruiting process of references, clearances, required documents, and training. The end result, upon approval of the CSC Foster Parenting Committee, is a child being placed in your home to share your life.
