In Wisconsin, there are more than 7,000 children in foster care. People have already stepped up to become licensed foster parents, but there’s still not enough homes for children in need. That’s where you come in.
We need families and individuals from all backgrounds, cultures and family structures to represent the diverse range of children who need safe and supportive homes.
You don’t have to be perfect to become a foster parent, but you do need to be patient, understanding and committed to a child’s current and future needs. Foster parents must be at least 21 years old. You can be single, married or partnered. You can work outside the home (including full-time) and have children of your own in the home.

Requirements to become a foster parent
The Wisconsin Foster Care and Adoption Resource Center (FCARC) provides educational materials on its website, and you can learn more about foster care through the No Matter What: Stories of Hope and Resilience YouTube Channel. There are also links to family support associations and groups.
You can look up statewide meetings, training options, and events on the FCARC website or contact them at 1-800-762-8063.
Fostering Across Wisconsin is a newsletter that contains helpful articles, stories, and resources. These newsletters are available to parents via a free lending library.
The State of Wisconsin Foster Parent Handbook is packed with valuable tips. It's an excellent source of information to refer to if you need to clarify something or learn more about a foster parent's responsibilities.
Your local foster and adoption agency is always there for you as well. They should be your first choice when contacting someone with questions or concerns.

This 7: ei Train-the-Trainer program has impacted the way I serve students seeking collegiate academic and emotional support. I am excited to be part of a campus-wide initiative in shifting perspective, practice, and policy here on the other side of the state.

The most unprofessional agency I've ever dealt with in my entire life. No transparency. No care. Abuse of power. Manipulative employees. Lack of respect care and honesty. I was totally misled by several different people. I really hate that I have to give one star.

Took part in a Informed Trauma Care training put on by Saint Agnes Mike Jorgenson who was kind enough to come all the way to Marshfield. Wonderful training that will help me impact the students I work with on a daily basis. Anyone in a service based field should attend this training. Thank you Mike!

Kanisha provided a great training on Trauma Informed Schools for our Head Start staff. They were engaged and valued Kanisha's experience and insight. They also provided positive feedback regarding her personality/presentation style. We plan to look at using SaintAs and Kanisha for future events and training needs!

Kenisha gave our district real information. It was fantastic. I've already put her information to use!
