Parent Information
Specialized Foster Care
As foster parents, you can touch a child's life in a positive and lasting way. Although foster parents represent a broad range of backgrounds, the common and unifying characteristics among them are love and respect for children, and a basic belief in the importance of good parenting for a child's healthy growth and well-being.
The role of foster parents has changed over the past years, and the changes are good - good for the children who need sensitive care; good for the troubled parents who need positive role models; and good for our agency who depends more and more on your skills and involvement to make appropriate and realistic treatment plans.
If you feel that you and your family has something to offer a child in need, consider the challenge. Please contact The Children's Home of Reading and find out how you can become a part of a professional team who cares, and help us to make a difference in someone's life.
