Treatment Foster Care is a specialized program designed for youth with higher emotional and behavioral needs.
Instead of residential care, youth are placed in trained foster homes where they receive structured support, stability and connection.
TFI’s treatment foster care program equips parents with the necessary tools to provide the care and structure children need in a family home environment. Children can achieve amazing levels of healing when their needs are met by creative, consistent and committed caregivers.
As a treatment foster parent, you’ll receive advanced training, unparalleled ongoing support, increased compensation and the tools needed to help youth succeed. This is a great fit for caregivers who have experience caring for youth with elevated or specialized needs.
