About
Foster care offers safety and stability to children who have experienced abuse or neglect by providing family care when out-of-home placement becomes necessary. Foster families are licensed by the agency and trained to nurture and promote the development of children. Children's trauma treatment and parent coaching are provided to treat children and strengthen families. Since 2009, privatization of Michigan's child welfare system has increased the number of children coming into the agency's foster care program. In 2018, 66,039 days of foster care were provided to children. 168 children were transitioned from foster care into permanent families through adoption as part of a permanency plan when they could not be returned to their families.
