Services Offered: Foster Care

Our foster care programs include respite and treatment foster care.

Respite Care
A supportive service to foster parents and foster children designed to reduce stress, to help during a family crisis or to prevent burnout and/or placement disruptions. Respite is used when a foster child and/or foster family would benefit from a short-term separation from one another.

Treatment Care
Treatment Foster Care is designed for children with severe emotional challenges who come from an institutional setting or are likely to be placed in one. Typically, these children have a history of severe abuse and neglect or chaotic home lives. The goal is to provide a supportive family environment in which a child's struggle to forge a normal life has the greatest chance of success. The critical needs of these troubled children are addressed through treatment strategies developed by multi-disciplinary teams of professionals.
