The CatholicCare Foster Care Program

For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me.
Matthew 25:35

Tragically, there are children and young people in our community who are unable to live with their families through no fault of their own.

CatholicCare is looking for families across our area who might consider taking a child or young person into their home - to love and support them be it for one or two nights, a few weeks, months, or even longer term.

Foster Care carers receive 24/7 support, ongoing training and financial help to cover the care and living costs of the child or young person. If you have space in your home and room in your heart, please contact CatholicCare now. Call (02) 4320 7777 or visit www.fostering.org.au.
