The Department of Children and Families is actively recruiting foster parents for children in your community and surrounding areas.
 
Our goal is to provide our foster children with a supportive and healing environment in a home in their own community until they can be reunited with their families or another plan can be made on their behalf.
 
If you are thinking about becoming a foster parent, you can learn more about the application process and the supports provided by the Department by attending an informational meeting!

The Massachusetts Department of

Children & Families serves children

of all ages — from infants to

adolescents — from every community

— who need a home.

✦ You can be single, married, partnered,

divorced; or widowed.

✦ You can rent or own a home.

✦ Time spent with you in a stable and secure

environment gives a child a chance to heal.

✦ The rewards of providing daily care,

guidance and acceptance to a child are

immeasurable.
