Requirements to become a foster parent

You must meet minimum requirements to provide foster care in Pennsylvania. Foster parents for children in need must:

  • Be a minimum of 21 years old
  • Pass a criminal background check with fingerprinting
  • Have time and energy to devote to fostering
  • Live in a safe and healthy environment
  • Prove good health through a medical examination/physical
  • Maintain financial stability
  • Clear all home safety requirements
  • Complete required pre-service training hours
  • Finish the Home Inspection

After fulfilling all requirements during the approval process, licensed foster parents can welcome a foster child into their home. To maintain a valid license, foster parents must also participate in ongoing training each year.

All adults who are living in homes with foster children in Pennsylvania must pass a required criminal background check and fingerprinting. This includes adult children who are family members living at home.

There are other, more detailed requirements for foster homes, such as having a flushing toilet and an operable phone. Prospective foster parents will learn more details during foster parent orientation.

Once you've decided to foster, you can contact a public or private foster agency or the Pennsylvania State Resource Family Association. Foster agencies screen and train prospective foster families and ensure applicants are good candidates for foster care.

Emily was absolutely amazing during our home study process. She was easy to work with and explained everything each step of the way. It is an overwhelming process and Emily guided us through everything and put our minds at ease. She is easy to talk and is super responsive to all my calls/emails. I would highly recommend Transitions Adoption Agency for any of your home study or adoption needs!

We used Transitions Adoption Agency for our home study. Emily is absolutely fantastic and a pleasure to work with! All questions, calls and emails are answered quickly and I appreciate Emily’s knowledge and ability to refer adoption agencies outside of PA. Thank you Emily and Transitions Adoption Agency!

We had the blessing of working with Emily from Transitions Adoption Agency for our home study. It was an absolute pleasure! Emily was responsive and reassuring through the whole entire process, which is admittedly overwhelming. She led us each step of the way and made sure we knew what was needed when. I would definitely work with her again and am very happy that she'll do our post-adoption study as well!
