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.

Adoption by Shepherd Care seems to really care about us and our hopes for adoption. They are so welcoming and seek to make sure we understand the process. They're even praying for us along the way! We are truly blessed by them as we await our future child.

Our experience with Sheperd Care was just amazing. Thanks to them we were able to start our family. They Help to make our dream a reality. We can never thank them enough. All the staff were incredible, specially Claudia Martinez who was our guardian angel throughout the whole process. Their work is not a bussiness is a mission from God.

We are from Canada and we adopted through ASC. The staff at the agency was always helpful and always encouraged us to ask any questions we had! Kira is such a sweet person to work with and she did a wonderful job of helping us through some of the process. Terri is so knowledgeable about the adoption process and was also very helpful in getting us onto the active waiting list and working with us throughout the whole process. We feel blessed to have had ASC help us on our journey!
