The purpose of foster family care is to provide healthy and supportive homes for children. Foster care is necessary when children are unable to live with their biological family. Foster families will assist Friendship House in meeting the childs emotional and physical needs, and provide daily care. The ultimate program goal is to prepare children and biological parents for successful reunification whenever possible.

Friendship House offers training, financial reimbursement, case manager support and referrals to community services, with round-the-clock access to an "On-Call" case manager.
