Requirements to become a foster parent
You'll still have support and guidance when you receive a foster placement. Kentucky has continued training and can connect new foster parents with experienced families through the Foster Parent Mentor Program.
Having access to an experienced foster family is invaluable. You'll be able to connect with other adults who have advice and can provide coaching to make your parenting journey easier.
Your local child-placing agency is one of your best sources of information and foster parenting services.
Nonprofit child welfare organizations approved by the state recruit resource parents, provide resources, and offer training and general support. When you attend the informational orientation and parent training, you'll receive books and resources that tell you more about the many available foster parent support groups.

Heritage is quick to pass the blame on their failures to not listen to a foster parent when situations with a child in their care conducts acts of vandalism. The also don't listen to their foster parents when they inform their case managers about a child needing to be removed from a home until the situations escalate. It took over a month for our foster child to get removed from my home from when I first requested it with our case manager until things reached a tipping point when the cops got called to my house. The child has vandalised my vehicle and Heritage is refusing to accept any responsibility for this issue.
