Children in foster care

Children in foster care are minors who are temporarily removed from their homes due to concerns about their safety or well-being, often related to abuse or neglect. They are placed in the care of licensed foster families or group homes. The goal is to provide a stable and nurturing environment while working towards family reunification or finding a permanent adoptive home. Foster care aims to support the child's emotional and developmental needs during a challenging time in their lives. Social services oversee the process to ensure the welfare of these children throughout their stay in foster care.
