Details:: HCKids is dedicated to finding loving, devoted, and supportive forever families for the children available for adoption in Hamilton County foster care. Our goal is to inform the general public about the adoption and foster care process, while also recruiting potential families for the children we have just waiting to be adopted. Hamilton County currently has about 190 children available for adoption. The countyâ€™s Childrenâ€™s Services division often must take custody of children who are the victims of abuse or neglect and cannot be safely reunited with their families. HCKids is the adoption and foster care section of Hamilton County Childrenâ€™s Services, a department of Hamilton County Job and Family Services (HCJFS). Hamilton County Job and Family Services administers state, federal and local programs designed to help those in need and help families work toward self sufficiency. The agency has served Hamilton County since 1947. Today, the approximately 780 employees that work for the agency serve hundreds of thousands of Hamilton County residents. The department is one of the few quadruple-combined public human service agencies in Ohio â€“ providing public assistance, childrenâ€™s services, child support and workforce development programs to the community. Among the departmentâ€™s many duties are: local child protection, adult protection, child care, child support enforcement, workforce development, cash assistance, food assistance and medical assistance.
