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.

This place is amazing. Their facility is unique not just to Iowa but to the US in general. I have friends across the country who wish they had a place like child serve in their city. It has been truly life changing for our family. My son has been going there since he was 10 months old and his therapists have caught things his original pediatrician missed. With them partnering with UIHC, it makes it seamless getting proper healthcare with therapists and sub specialists in their clinics on site! Simply amazing.
