foster care

Foster care is a social service system designed to provide temporary homes for children who cannot live with their biological families due to various reasons, such as abuse, neglect, or parental issues. In foster care, trained families (foster families) offer care, support, and stability to these children until they can either be reunited with their families or adopted. The goal is to ensure the children's safety and well-being while working towards a permanent solution. Foster care agencies oversee the process, matching children with suitable families and providing resources and support for both the children and the foster parents.
