Foster Families Needed
When courts find birth parents guilty of abuse or neglect, they place their children in foster care. According to the Iowa Department of Human Services nearly 6,000 children were placed in foster care in 1999 and families that choose to help foster kids are desperately in need. Foster families have to pass criminal checks and classes that prepare them for adoption and fostering issues. Learn more about being a foster parent and the adoption process from the Muscatine Journal.
