Youth Homes offers foster care and adoption services through our Dan Fox Family Care Program. We place children into families that we have recruited, screened, trained, and licensed, plus we support placements made by the Montana Child and Family Services Division (the State child welfare agency).
Our goal is to create and maintain healthy family environments within which children who’ve been abused and neglected can begin to heal and find permanency or stability. Some placements are time-limited, and the child stays in a foster placement while he or she works toward reunification with his or her biological family. However, the child is often available and appropriate for permanent placement, and we will work toward adoption or guardianship.
The mission of Youth Homes is “to help every youth feel safe, have a sense of belonging, and find a place to call home.”
Our vision is “To provide an array of services to support children and families of Western Montana, regardless of their ability to pay.”

Requirements to become a foster parent
Adults interested in fostering and adoption can find support from the Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services (DPHHS). The official state website answers commonly asked questions, provides information and resources for families, has information about tax credits and support groups, and more.
The Child and Family Services Division (CFSD) or your local child-placing agency should be one of your first points of contact if you need assistance.
Many online resources are entirely free to parents, such as blog articles. Support groups also exist to help you through the process by providing educational materials or connecting advocates. Foster parents can attend events as well, such as the Child Abuse and Neglect Conference.
Your local foster care agency is always there for you, so don't be afraid to ask questions or raise concerns. You're part of a team as a foster parent, and you can rely on the other team members, such as the case manager or birth parents.
