Become a foster parent in Brown County

We are so happy you are exploring how to become a foster parent with us. We are always in need of additional foster homes in Brown County.

Foster parents help kids heal and grow.

Chris and Cindy live in Brown county and were licensed in the fall of 2016. Within three weeks of getting their foster care license, they accepted the placement of a 12-year-old boy and his 10-year-old sister. The children were in a county foster home prior to being welcomed by Chris and Cindy. CCR immediately put services in place for both children to receive necessary therapy to address their trauma histories from years of neglect. The sibling pair stayed with Chris and Cindy for 15 months before returning home to their family. The kids made beautiful progress while in their last foster home. 

So, what is the difference between CCR and other Wisconsin foster agencies?

• Weekly in-home support visits and school visits.
• 24/7 Helpline so you can speak with a CCR case manager within minutes, after hours.
• All CCR case managers have a master's degree in Social Work.
• A 15-year average length of employment among CCR case managers.
• Trauma-informed care training before and during your foster care journey.
• Maximum of 15 kids allowed on each case worker's caseload.

If you are interested in younger children, we request that you are open to helping children up to age 12. Of course, our greatest need is homes for teens but we place all ages and all sizes of sibling groups too. It is okay to have a preference for the age group you wish to help.

If you qualify to be a foster parent and can provide love, patience, and acceptance to children in need of a loving home, we would love to speak with you. We encourage you to explore our website and find many answers to the important foster care questions you have.
