Requirements to become a foster parent
Foster parents receive a reimbursement or payment to help with care costs. According to the Oregon Department of Human Services, the Oregon foster care rates are as follows:
- Base rate payment of $693 per month (age 0-5 years)
- Base rate payment of $733 per month (age 6-12)
- Base rate payment of $795 per month (age 13 - 20)
These payments are meant to help cover the costs of food, clothing, housing, transportation, personal care items, etc. Parents may also receive a shelter care payment.
The DHS or private foster care agencies provide flexible training opportunities, on-call support, access to a network of professionals, support groups, and respite care.
Respite care gives full-time foster parents a break when needed or allows them to address emergency situations.

Went there 2x in past 10 years. NEVER HELP. My most recent trip told they have plenty of funds but no help for you. Don’t even sit and evaluate my situation. I Guess you gotta be a personal friend

This is a terrible organization who lied to us. When they built the apartments on 12th and Stark they guaranteed that they would provide space within the building for an iconic sign that was built by the children and families who built the park. Instead they dumped it in the rectory. They promised to expand the lunch service at the church and instead stripped the kitchen and shut it down.

They are so helpful and have so many references if they themselves are not able to help you. The offer free services like money management courses, but also reduced pricing services which I love. They are always friendly, clear and transparent about their services, options and fees. I would highly recommend them and they also have volunteer options if you want to help your community.
