TREATMENT FOSTER CARE

We Believe

1. Every child deserves to be safe and healthy, in a loving home and supportive community.
2. A safe place to sleep is a child’s first step to health and healing.
3. Families deserve a chance to stay together.

We know that children and youth have the best opportunity to thrive when they launch into adulthood from a caring and compassionate home. But we need your help. 

Our Greatest Need

In Missouri, 13,000 children are in need of loving, temporary homes. Many of these children have experienced significant trauma, making it difficult to participate — let alone succeed — in school and in the home. Our greatest need is treatment foster care — a 24/7 support program empowering foster families to help youth overcome trauma and prepare for the future.

It is our priority to ensure you are successful. Treatment foster care parents receive an enhanced and individualized level of care, including:

• 24/7 access to support.
• Specialized foster parent trainings and support groups.
• Regular communication to check on the child’s behavior and your emotional well-being.
