Foster Care offers temporary out-of-home care to children of all ages who aren’t able to reside with their own families because of needs related to safety and well-being. The goal of this service is to provide for the children until they can be safely reunited with that family. There are different levels of foster care with the most common being Kinship foster care, Traditional foster care, Therapeutic foster care, and Respite foster care. Adults who provide these services are also referred to as Resource Parents, which is the general term used for those serving as Foster, Adoptive, or Kinship Caregivers. (A Foster Parent typically doesn’t have a prior relationship with a child in their care. A Kinship Caregiver typically has a relationship with the child, or family connection in some way.)
For all children, safe, calm and caring environments that are generally predictable and well-structured are essential, and this is especially important for children in out of home care. Our goal at KidsPeace foster care is afford all youth with an opportunity to experience care and nurturing in a safe and supportive environment, by placing them in a level of care best suited to their needs. Services are individually tailored to support each foster family and those children entrusted to their care.
