Anyone who wishes to become a foster parent in Nebraska must go through a sponsoring agency, and here in Nebraska those agencies are desperately looking for families or individuals who have the skill set to help children in foster care that have special needs.

The Autism Society received a request from KVC Behavioral Heathcare to share their information with our community.  Please take a moment to read their letter.

If you or anyone you know has ever considered becoming a foster parent, please give KVC a call.  KVC is dedicated to recruit, train, and support foster parents. They offer classes (that are required by the State of Nebraska) to become foster parents, that begin every month.
