About Us

Wisconsin foster care since 1989

Support is Second to None

Foster Parent Support

Community Care Resources is a statewide foster care agency committed to responding to the effects of childhood trauma. Treatment foster care is designed to provide healing in a loving, structured home environment for kids with heightened emotions and behaviors.  

CCR is one of the largest private foster care agencies in Wisconsin. We currently have foster parents in 35 county locations and over 120 children in care. Our foster parents use trauma-informed care techniques and principles to care for children ages 2-18 and sibling groups. All families are receiving 24/7 support and weekly in-home visits. 

After three decades of caring for neglected and abused children, there is one thing we know for sure – the key to helping a child recover and heal from trauma is a loving, stable family environment with foster care support services in place. In addition, children with trauma histories often require more than good parenting skills. Our staff is here to help. 

Foster parents across Wisconsin count on dedicated, experienced staff.

Each management team member has been dedicated to CCR for most of their career. All have Master's degrees in social work, and all five supervisors have been employed with us for over 22 years. In addition, our Clinical Case Managers average an astounding 16 years of employment with CCR. Not only do our staff members stay for years, but our foster parents also follow suit. The first family to be licensed in 1989 still fosters teen girls with us! We are humbled and grateful to work with amazing foster parents from around Wisconsin.Wisconsin Foster Parents

Foster parent training exceeds state standards.

Foster parents receive in-depth trauma-informed care training and continued education. Our team ensures each foster family gets the training necessary to care for children. In fact, upon licensure, 100% of our new foster parents tell us they feel prepared and confident to accept a child or sibling group to their home. In addition, continuing education classes and foster parent support groups are held via Zoom and in person throughout the state. As a result, foster parents learn from each other, share, and feel appreciated as a part of a dedicated team of professionals.

Specialized treatment programs are available.

  • In 1993, CCR added an Outpatient Mental Health Certification. Our partner agency is Community Care Programs, a child and adolescent mental health clinic in multiple counties across Wisconsin. In addition, many of our foster parents and kids benefit from CCP services.
  • Our Specialized Group Care model was designed in 2001. The model combines the best of Treatment Foster Care and Treatment Group Care. CCR has many foster families caring for 3-4 older children at one time in a small, intimate group home model.
