Requirements to become a foster parent
Many do not realize the need for new resource families in California. The number of foster kids outnumber the foster families who can provide short or long-term care. Foster advocates work hard to find places for these children, but it is not easy.
The latest 2021 report from the Adoption and Foster Care Analysis and Reporting System (AFCARS) report in California says there are:
- 47,871 kids in California's foster care system
- 22,892 who entered foster care
- 15,386 foster kids awaiting adoption
- California foster kids across all ages, with a median of 8 years
- 33% whose foster child case plans include adoption
A child's median time in the California foster care system is over a year at 16.8 months. 13% spend 3-4 years in foster care.
California needs foster parents to take in multiple children if they have the time and energy to care for them. Sibling groups often need care, and it is essential to support these family bonds. In California, it is challenging to find homes for teenagers, though they need stable environments and reliable adults to support them.

I had a great experience with Guardians of Love. My children were placed with Guardians of Love and the were very kind to me. I never felt judged and found all the staff and social worker to always be willing to help. The foster parent my children were placed with was great. She treated my kids as her own. My children still call and visit her.

I have had the pleasure of working with three very nice and knowledgeable woman Treshona, Leilani & Amal. I didn't give them a 5 star because I feel the focus needs to be more on the missing parent. However the classes was refreshing and both of my home visit was pleasant.
