Christian Family Services is a 501(c)(3) non-profit agency that serves Michigan through professional counseling, adoption and unplanned pregnancy assistance. Our office is located in Southfield, Michigan.

Since 1948, Christian Family Services has dedicated its services to individuals and families who need help and healing. Over the last 70 years, we have helped thousands of people by restoring troubled marriages, comforting individuals, equipping frustrated parents, and stabilizing hurting children and families.

In addition, we have had the incredible privilege of helping more than 1,500 children find their Forever Families through our adoption program. 

Finally, we provide education and support to women who are facing unplanned pregnancies and want to talk about their options — whether it be single parenthood or placing their babies into loving families for adoption.

Requirements to become a foster parent

Parents can access the Michigan Foster Care Portal (MFCP), which is a tool that helps expedite licensure. The portal can track progress and list the next steps a foster parent needs to take. The MFCP also contains FAQs and helpful guides for parents.

In addition to online tools, foster families also receive some financial support. How much they receive depends on the child's age and needs. Parents may also be entitled to additional reimbursement that covers care costs.

Plus, foster families can access many local and state-wide support organizations and advocacy groups. These groups provide resources, answer questions, and are happy to help form connections between foster parents.

Your foster care agency is always there if you have questions or concerns. Their goal is to ensure the child's well-being and assist parents through the fostering process and beyond.

Another path you might want to consider is co-parenting with the birth parents. The end goal in most foster cases is to reunite a child with their parents or primary caregiver. You'll work with the birth parents anyway to set up visitations, and co-parenting can make your job easier.

Working further with the birth parents can also make the entire fostering process less stressful for a child. They won't feel as if they have to "choose" between homes and families.
