We are so happy you are exploring becoming a foster parent with us. We always have a need for more foster homes in Clark county.
As a new CCR foster parent, you will begin your journey as a level 2 (basic) foster home, just like you would with Clark County foster care. Level 2 children have experienced trauma due to abuse and/or neglect. With experience, foster parents may choose to provide treatment foster care, levels 3 and 4, to care for children with heightened behaviors and emotions due to significant trauma. Remaining at level 2 is okay too.
So, what is the difference between CCR and county agencies like Clark? The differences are mainly found in the amount of support and attention you will receive.
We place kids of all ages and many are sibling pairs and groups. A typical placement will last 12-24 months.
If you qualify to be a foster parent and can provide a flexible schedule, love, and stability to children in need of a loving home, we would love to speak with you. We also encourage you to explore our website and find many additional answers to the important foster care questions you have.
