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.

Communication with Gift of Life was challenging. Getting anyone to respond to a simple phone call was exhausting. Estimates birth mother expenses were way off. I had to ask for things repeatedly. I don’t think this was intentional, I really think they are a busy agency that just needs more adoption coordinators so they can be more attentive.
