CHILDREN & YOUTH
Catholic Charities offers various services dedicated to enriching the lives of children and youth. Programs assist in promoting growth and resolving issues in a young person’s life. From helping refugee children increase educational success to resolving difficulties in parent/child relationships, Catholic Charities provides a safe, nurturing environment for children to achieve their full potential.
PREGNANCY SUPPORT & ADOPTION
Catholic Charities offers pregnancy support for those facing an unexpected pregnancy. We provide non-judgemental information about parenting and adoption options. The teen parenting program in Winston-Salem serves young parents and promotes continued education in school and life skills. Our adoption services place children in new, loving families and provide continued support through their journey together.

Requirements to become a foster parent
The state requires that foster parents get licensed through their local Department of Social Services or a licensed private agency. These sources will be your best form of support. Through them, you'll receive training and have a point of contact for emergencies.
If you ever have questions, reach out to your case manager. They're trained to assist foster families and the children in their care.
The Foster Family Alliance of North Carolina is a statewide association that recruits new parents, provides training, and offers support. You can find training and webinars online. You can also read parenting tips, find your region, and more.
The National Foster Parent Association is a non-profit that provides training and education. Caregivers can also find free online training through the NFPA.
The NC Division of Social Services (NC DSS) is the agency in charge of overseeing the state's child welfare system. NC Kids assists new foster parents with the early stages of the process. You can find children awaiting adoption and access foster care and adoption support services.
It also helps to form connections with other foster families, especially those with years of experience. You may have questions or need advice from them. It can make you feel like you have someone on your side through your journey.
