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.

Seems like it takes forever to get the simplest things done. Case workers change without notice.

Failed to communicate or provide assistance other than one monthly phone call. When seeking help about my frustrations I was laughed at and not taken seriously. Was told they would get someone to help but didn't follow through. My son has moderate intellectual disability resulting in inappropriate outbursts leading to my daughter and I being assaulted and they force us to stay locked in our rooms and offer no help. We are repeatedly ignored and no services provided forcing me to deal with it all on my own.
