  • Description
  • Few situations can be more bewildering and turbulent for children than removal from their families. That’s why Ada S. McKinley’s Foster Care Services Division is there to provide comprehensive support and ease the anxiety associated with the traumatic situation of a family disruption. Ada S. McKinley is currently assisting 148 children from infancy to age 21 in their search for a permanent home. Our approach keeps siblings together so they have the support, comfort, and opportunity to share their experience of family life and loss and to maintain their identity as a family unit. A team comprised of a foster parent, social worker, and home development specialist facilitates a safe transition to a foster home placement. In many instances children may be placed with foster parents who are related. Foster parents ensure that the child’s primary needs are met, including food, clothing, personal self-care, and emotional support and comfort. Ada S. McKinley provides counseling, parenting education, and support to aid adoption by either new prospective parents or current foster parents or reunification with extended family. With the dedicated assistance of the Foster Care specialists, children and families are enabled to heal from past trauma and build stable, nurturing home environments.
