COVID-19 Response

Even during this time of social distancing and self-isolation, children are still coming into care. If becoming a foster parent has been on your mind, please reach out to us. In response to COVID-19, we have modified our steps to becoming a foster parent in accordance with AHS guidelines and the current State of Emergency. Our Foster Care Information Sessions will be done through online Zoom meetings, instead of meeting in person, for the foreseeable future. Our next Information Session is scheduled for June 1st at 7pm. As much as possible, our processes will be moved to an online capacity. Due to the fast-changing nature of the situation, we will continue to adjust as needed and endeavor to keep everyone updated.

Thank you,
The Foster Calgary Family
