Fostering and Adoption
The Children’s Place Association seeks parents who will offer the security, guidance and love every child needs to develop and blossom. The Foster Care Program’s primary objective is to provide stable and loving homes for each child.
We give priority to foster parents who are fully prepared to care for the children as long as necessary in order to avoid short-term placements. Interested in becoming a foster parent? Contact Ivan Harrison.
In addition, please review the licensing standards for foster family homes.
Foster Care and Adoption
“My son and I adopted each other in January 2007 and The Children's Place Association has been with us through the entire journey. He will always remember the safety and security he found at The Children's Place Association.”
- Adoptive Parent
The Children’s Place Association believes strongly in keeping families together as much as possible and every effort is made to support the parent/child relationship. In many instances this reunion is not immediate and we are committed to providing a loving short-term foster home for these children.
Our Foster Care Program recruits, trains, licenses and supervises individuals and couples to become foster parents. By operating our own Foster Care Program, we are able to match children with special needs to foster parents capable of caring for them. Our program recruits parents who can accommodate sibling groups and support visits by biological parents and extended family.
If a child is unable to return home to their birth parents a loving permanent home is found with adoptive parents. The Children's Place Association facilitates adoptions for these children.
