Requirements to become a foster parent
The DHS assists foster families with placement and ensures the child adjusts well to their new environment. Whether you have years of parenting experience or are relatively new to the idea, they have many support options for families. You can find plenty of information on the DHS/DFCS website or call them for more assistance.
Your local licensed child placement agency also places children in the foster system with carefully matched parents. Although foster care is temporary, it's crucial to find the right fit. That's why parents get a say in age range and gender.
There are also many state support groups for foster families that provide educational resources, services, and more. Connecting with these organizations and adding to your personal support network will be invaluable.
One of the best ways to become a better parent, whether you plan on fostering a child short-term or adopting, is to read as much as you can about Georgia's foster system. For instance, recently proposed bills would help to streamline parts of the state's foster care placement system.
You can find plenty of information available online for free as well. Blogs, podcasts, and videos are all incredibly useful ways to obtain new information about fostering.

The Bloom Closet is an amazing ministry to foster kids and their families. It provides free clothing and materials set up like a shopping experience in a fancy boutique. My group of adults with special needs has volunteered there and the staff was extremely patient and welcoming. Bloom is a star in Fayetteville's crown.

As a former Foster Care Social Worker, my children were blessed. I would recommend bringing the children with you that are of age because the experience is so amazing for them. Imagine shopping at a high end store with staff assisting you and recommending items. They put class in consignment boutique shopping.
