Children’s Bureau invites families who are willing and able to care for children during the reunification process with their parents to contact Children’s Bureau. There are also children currently in foster care who are unable to return to their families of origin.

Children’s Bureau is seeking caring families to become resource families and consider foster-adopting these children. Families with the willingness, ability and resources to care for children of all ages from newborn to 18 years of age are encouraged to attend an information meeting on Saturday, Sept. 20 from 10 a.m. to noon at Children’s Bureau Family Center.

Children’s Bureau encourages individuals (single or married), who are interested in helping children find the love, stability and support a family can provide, to contact Children’s Bureau. Qualifying families receive training, certification and support. For more information, call (213) 342-0168, toll free (800) 730-3933 or visit the website www.all4kids.org. An information packet or application may be requested by filling out a request form on the website if desired. An application may also be printed directly from the website.
