FOSTER CARE

Foster care provides a safe place for children, either temporarily or permanently. Children enter foster care because of neglect, abuse, a family crisis, or the child's acting out at home. Foster parents help children grow and feel good again by providing them with stability, affection, consistency, and nurturing. The Idaho Youth Ranch provides foster care recruitment and training services in northern Idaho. In 2007, Idaho Youth Ranch Foster Care Services provided home studies, training, and licensing visits for 398 foster families.
