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.

You’d think a place called special kids special families would have a NICE….. CARING staff right? The employees first off look sooo overworked which really shows how much the management cares about their employees. Not to mention…. if the MANAGEMENT of the company can’t even care for their OWN employees!! What makes you think they gonna care about the “special families” and “special kids” Please go anywhere else but here please.

They claim they will help then charge three times as much as they advise. Then appear at said person home to harass them. Not cool.
