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.

My daughter had a MONITORED visit with her mother (who lost my daughter to me because of child abuse, neglect and keeping her out of school for 2 grades) at the visit the mother was able to give my daughter 50MG of CBD in front of the monitor! It was a big green package that had a big marijuana leaf on it with big letters that said 50MG CBD. What is wrong with these people? I called to complain they said they would get back to me, never did. Filing police report today!

Horrible experience. We are figuring out now if the administrative staff will do anything for there “social workers” reprehensible and maybe even criminal behavior. Not to be trusted. Beware
