CO4Kids is Colorado’s campaign to raise awareness of ways to prevent child abuse and neglect and the need for foster and adoptive families in every community. The campaign, which is run by the Colorado Department of Human Services, includes the Child Abuse and Neglect Hotline. Every parent needs help from time to time – from family, friends, and sometimes, from professionals.

Requirements to become a foster parent

You must meet minimum requirements to provide foster care for children in Colorado. Foster parents for children and families must:

  • Be 21 years of age or older
  • Maintain sufficient income to support a family
  • Have physical and mental capability to care for children and youth
  • Pass a child abuse background and criminal background check
  • Work with a treatment team and undergo future training
  • Complete a Home Study

Prospective foster families can contact a Colorado child placement agency or your local Department of Human Services. Social workers in these child welfare agencies will provide information about Colorado's child welfare system, foster care, and the adoption process.

Social workers recommended that other adults and children in your home agree to provide long-term home care, too. If everyone is ready to welcome a new child, your local agency will help your home become an approved foster home.
