Are you curious about becoming a foster parent? Hundreds of children in Fairfax County need a temporary loving home until they can safely return to their families. We need more foster parents, and information meetings are one of the ways we get to know prospective parents.
Information meetings for prospective parents are by invitation only on the second Tuesday of each month from 6:45-8:30 p.m. To attend a meeting first complete a short interest form to help us get to know you better. One of our specialists will review your completed information and contact you within two business days.
Thank you for your interest in becoming a foster parent and helping children in need.
