Foster Care and Adoption

Foster Care and Adoption

Catholic Charities foster care program helps qualified individuals and couples become licensed foster parents. Our case managers facilitate the initial training and continue to provide ongoing training, resources and support. We recruit and support foster parents, therapeutic foster parents, kinship foster parents and unaccompanied minor foster parents.

Foster children often come from homes where parents are unable to prioritize them or provide the food, shelter, and unconditional love they need. Deb, a former therapeutic foster mom through Catholic Charities in Prescott, set out to change that.

In 2016, Rachel and Corey Andre became foster parents as they began kinship placement for a teenaged relative. Since that time, they have fostered 13 children and have grown their family through a successful process of adopting five children in the early weeks of October.
