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.

May is one of our favorite months here at Catholic Charities. That is because it’s foster care appreciation month! Even during these times when we cannot gather to celebrate, we want all our foster parents to know how sincerely appreciative we are for their unwavering commitment to loving and supporting Arizona’s children.

When Julia and Greg looked into becoming foster parents, they didn’t know if it was the right time, but they felt called to fostering.
