Harbor Families, Foster Care, Families Count™, and Heritage Builders are all Lifeline ministries that equip families and the local church to provide support and education to families who have experienced foster care or are at risk of separation.

Through these supportive relationships, parents and children hear about the hope of Christ as they work toward the ultimate goal of family reunification. God created and loves families. He wants them to be together. That’s why we champion reunification

Previous trauma, financial instability, missing support systems, and a lack of healthy parenting skills create a vulnerable environment for families. In these vulnerable circumstances, a simple problem can compound into a debilitating situation. As a result, children may suffer neglect or abuse with some eventually placed in state custody.

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.
