Provides out-of-home placement for a wide range of youth, including young victims of abuse and neglect, emergency short term care, and youth with severe emotional and behavioral disorders. The goals for the youth in care are either reunification with family, guardianship or adoption, or independent living. Care is delivered in private homes with specially trained foster parents. Foster Care Specialists are responsible for coordinating various services while youth are in care. If required, the agency will provide additional therapeutic support to both the biological family and foster family, as well as the youth in care.
