Treatment Foster Care

Treatment Foster Care (TFC) is a specialized form of foster care designed for children and teens with emotional, behavioral, or mental health challenges. It combines traditional foster care with therapeutic support, providing a nurturing home environment while also addressing the child's specific needs through professional treatment. Caregivers in TFC are trained to implement therapeutic techniques and work closely with mental health professionals. This approach aims to help the child heal and develop the skills needed for healthier relationships and daily functioning, ultimately preparing them for a successful transition back to family life or independent living.
