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.

Sherri is very unprofessional. I would not recommend anyone see her. She is more worried about how to document to get paid then working with her client.

Wow, I can't express how pleased I am with this place. I wish I could rate it more stars because it definitely deserves it! This place always gets me in QUICKLY! The receptionist is so kind. And the therapists are amazing. I didn't have insurance and needed immediate help and they still managed to assist me, and not only that, but go heavily out of her way to make sure I was okay. In this field, people like them are legitimate life-savers. I can't thank them enough. I reccomend this place to anyone and everyone.
