Foster parents are needed to make a positive difference
Adults––single or married––are
welcome to attend an orientation

With nearly 70,000 children removed from their parents’ homes due to abuse or neglect, there is a great need for caring adults to provide a loving, nurturing home as either foster or adoptive parents. A parent orientation will be presented from 7 to 8:30 p.m. on Tues., March 19 at 1080 E. Janss Road, Thousand Oaks for those interested—adults single or married are welcome (English and Spanish speaking).

Foster parenting involves caring for a child on a short or long-term basis while adoption offers these vulnerable children a permanent, stable home environment.

Qualifying families receive extensive training, certification, funds and 24-hour support to aid in the care of their foster or adoptive children. Training is provided by Children’s Bureau, a licensed foster family and adoption agency.
