Foster Parent Information Sessions

Title:Foster Parent Information Sessions
Date & Time:Thu Jun 23, 2016 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM
Location:Ellen Coolidge Burke Branch Library, 4701 Seminary Rd. (Map This)
Event Details:When caretakers haven’t been able to change unhealthy conditions in their home, a child may need to be placed in foster care. That gives birthparents a chance to improve their situation, through counseling and services.

Here’s where foster parents come in, taking a child into their home for a few weeks or months. Foster care is a temporary response to family difficulties, not a long-term solution. The goal is for the child to return to his or her home or to find another permanent home.

Alexandria's foster families increase stability in a child's life by helping the child remain in a familiar community.
