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 foster parents and act as advocates for kids in school, court, and with DCFS.

?Shelter's Home-of-Relative, Traditional Foster Care, and Emergency Foster Care programs aim to place children in safe, stable, and nurturing environments until they can be reunited with their biological families. When reunification is not possible for safety or other reasons, adoption may be one option, though fostering is typically a temporary commitment.
