Foster Care Bill of Rights

The Foster Care Bill of Rights is a set of guarantees that ensure children in foster care, and their families, are treated with dignity and respect. It outlines their rights to safety, proper care, timely services, and involvement in decisions affecting their lives. It also affirms their right to be heard, to receive accurate information, and to maintain connections with family and loved ones when possible. The goal is to promote stability, well-being, and fairness for children in foster care, ensuring they are supported and their human rights are respected throughout their placement.
