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.

Great place for kids with special needs. The receptionist up front main building a great.
The building is nice and they offer a wide variety of services. From summer camp (held at the Zion church) to dog therapy and respite services.
My son attend therapy there for a few years. Most of the therapists were great and he made great strides.
The Respite service is in house and decent for the most part. My son didn't care for the institution like atmosphere.
Camp is every summer and they do quite a lot of activities. The biggest issue is that the church that they use isn't the cleanest. Otherwise for the two years my son attended, he had a good time. Oh great staff and most also work as staff at the respite center at Childserve.
