While the process of becoming a foster parent is often a long road, the steps themselves are fairly straightforward.

Choose Regular or Therapeutic
Foster Care

If you have experience working with children with special needs or a medical background, and have time to manage extra appointments, you may consider therapeutic fostering. Children in therapeutic foster care require a higher level of care.

Choose a Licensing Agency
To Be Assigned

The agency you choose should fit your family as they will be your support system as a foster family. You will be assigned a worker at that agency, who will help you through the application process and will be assigned to your family as long as you are fostering.

We are not a fundraising organization… we are simply a collection of regular people who learned about the foster care problems in the Upstate of South Carolina due to personal experiences with the family court system.

Once we learned about the problem we knew we had to do something and this is what we came up with.  Join us to solving this problem in our community.
