Family

These placements last six to 12 months, depending on the needs of the child and family. Most children are 5 years or older and part of a sibling group.

Kinship

These placements allow a relative or extended family member to be licensed to care for a child or siblings.

Therapeutic

While every child in foster care has special needs, those in therapeutic care have a specific and chronic mental health diagnosis that requires intensive, ongoing interventions.

Rapid Response Crisis Stabilization

Rapid response homes offer short-term care, no more than two weeks, for children in immediate crisis as they move between foster homes, group homes, or psychiatric residential treatment facilities.

Juvenile Justice

These homes provide a family setting and services for runaways, gang-affiliated teens, or other court-involved youth.
