Foster Care

Kids Above All is looking to recruit nurturing, supportive and loving people to become foster parents. Interested foster parents must provide structure and necessities, assume parenthood of the child, attend meetings and semi-monthly visits with caseworkers, and make sure youth get to therapy and their required appointments. KAA's case managers provide training and support for our foster parents and act as advocates for our kids in school, court and with DCFS.
