Adoption and Foster Care Specialists
Adoption and Foster Care Specialists, Inc. strives to provide safe, loving, stable homes for abused and/or neglected children in the state of Michigan. Whenever possible, our goal is family reunification, but when necessary, we create new families through adoption.
Since our founding in 2008, Adoption and Foster Care Specialists, Inc. has touched the lives of hundreds of Michigan children. Our overriding priority in every case is to take actions that are in the best interest of the child.
We are always looking for families with room in their hearts and their homes to become Foster or Adoptive families. If you are interested, please contact one of our professional staff to answer any of your questions. Please see our "About Us" page for names and contact information.
We are a 501(c)3 non-profit charitable organization licensed by the State of Michigan as a Child Placing Agency.

Requirements to become a foster parent
Many new parents are worried they'll be on their own if they decide to foster. That's not true; you have tons of support on your side.
You have the Iowa Department of Human Services (DHS). Your local DHS recruits and approves families for fostering and adoption. They also place children with approved parents.
The Iowa Foster & Adoptive Parents Association has handbooks, contact phone numbers, information on training and case plans, useful PDFs for foster parents, and more online.
You also have your local child-placing agency for assistance. They're licensed and approved to train parents and place children in homes. You can find information on how to navigate the legal system or tips for working with birth parents, for example.
Many state non-profits dedicate themselves to assisting foster youth and the families caring for them. They may help with basic care, such as clothing or food, or educate parents on specific topics.
