Foster to Adopt

Foster to Adopt is a pathway in the child welfare system where individuals or families first become foster caregivers for a child who is in need of temporary care. If the child becomes legally free for adoption, the foster caregivers have the opportunity to adopt that child. This process allows the caregivers to build a bond with the child during their time in foster care, while also providing stability and support. It’s a way to find permanent families for children in foster care, ensuring they have a loving home long-term.
