Requirements to become a foster parent
Many adults are eligible to become foster parents in their state but do not always realize it. Each state in the U.S. has regulations and requirements for licensing foster parents. Florida does not require parents to own a large home or quit their jobs and become stay-at-home parents. Florida foster parents must:
- Be 21 years of age or older
- Prove good health and ability to care for a child
- Maintain a stable income
- Pass a background screening
- Finish 30 hours of foster parent training
- Complete a Home Study
The required training course is free to aspiring foster parents. It helps parents learn how to foster children and become licensed to provide foster care in Florida.

I wish I could give ASC 10 stars! Words can not express how grateful My family and I for ASC! The entire team was incredible to us in helping us become a family. Claudia, Heidi, Nidia and Joe were with us every step of the way! Not only did we finally become a family by adopting internationally we also gain a family with ASC, We prayed, cried, laughed and celebrated together all though our adoption process! I strongly feel that they are Simply the Best!! There are not enough thank you to give! We love you guys! God bless ASC! 🙏🏻

They are a great agency. As a birth mom I just wish there was more post adoption counseling. I placed my baby in 2009 and I wasn’t ready to deal with those emotions attached to the adoption until now. Now that I’m finally in a place where I can even begin to process those feelings I feel lost trying to find posy adoption counseling. That being said Ava was incredibly sweet I was 15 years old when I placed my child for adoption and she made the process easy and listened to everything I wanted.

I was adopted through Shepherd's care and have been trying to contact my biological parents for years now but they refused and denied me that right wouldnt even give me their names so I advise any and everyone to not let this company get your babies and if you do or did adopt one please don't deny any baby that right to know where they come from.

Adoption by Shepherd Care (ACS) was recommended to us by our friends who had also adopted. They had nothing but good things to say about ACS and they were right. Everyone at Adoption by Shepherd Care are very professional and amazing, especially Kira and Heidi.
The adoption process was very smooth and they kept us informed all the time. Now we are so happy with our beautiful and happy son who we love so much ! Thank you Kira and Heidi
I would highly recommend Adoption by Shepherd Care to anyone looking to adopt.

(Translated by Google) We started our process of adopting children in Colombia, since March 2018. Heidi and Claudia have always been very kind and available to answer our questions and help us with the procedures. We continue in the process waiting for news from Colombia 🙏🏻
