Foster Care

Think about the impact of providing a safe place for a child who needs it—every smile, every step forward, and every difficulty overcome enriches your life as much as theirs. At Heritage Family Services, we're committed to helping kind people like you on the fulfilling foster caregiving journey.

Personal Fulfillment: Many foster parents find deep personal fulfillment in knowing they've made a meaningful difference in a child's life.

Guidance and Assistance: Whether you are facing an unexpected challenge or need someone to celebrate a success, our dedicated team is just a phone call away—24/7.

Growth: Becoming a foster parent offers an incredible journey of personal growth, providing opportunities for fulfillment and a deeper understanding of oneself and others.

Continuous Learning: Heritage proudly offers in-house courses through Cornell University, including Therapeutic Crisis Intervention and CARE training, along with everything else you need to become a skilled caregiver.

Personalized Support: We don't want the application process to be daunting. Let us assist you from our first connection until the moment children are placed in your home. Once you have children in your care, we continue to support you through home visits, a supportive community, and 24/7 advice, allowing you to focus on what truly matters.

Proven Impact: Our foster care program has positively impacted the lives of children, youth, and families alike. By fostering strong community connections and nurturing environments where both children and caregivers can flourish, our program touches the lives of many.
