Our mission is to Glorify God by Restoring and Empowering Families.
We offer three core programs - Family Care, Adoption and Counseling.

Our Family Care Department is the regional implementer of the Safe Families for Children program. We recruit, train and support a network of compassionate volunteers who provide short term hosting for children while their families recover from crisis situations.

Our experienced adoption department offers comprehensive home study services for domestic and international adoptions. We are an IAAME accredited adoption agency, and provide domestic adoption placements.

Our counseling program prioritizes the families we serve through Family Care and Adoption, but is also available to the community.

Requirements to become a foster parent

You must meet minimum requirements to provide foster care for children in Illinois. To become a foster parent, you must:

  • Be at least 21 years old
  • Attend foster parent orientation
  • Pass a background check
  • Finish 30 hours of foster parent training
  • Complete the Home Study
  • Provide at least three references
  • Clear a physical exam
  • Maintain financial stability

Foster families must be able to provide a safe and comfortable home for a child. You must provide room for the child to have a bed and enough space for personal belongings.

Foster parents do not need to be married or have a partner. However, if married, couples must show a stable marriage of at least one year before they can foster a child in Illinois.

Foster parents need to meet a child's basic care needs, such as providing meals and clothing. Foster families must also support a foster child's education and assist them in developing social skills.

Contact the DCFS or a local licensed child-placing agency to learn more or begin the fostering approval process.
