Our children need more foster carers
New Zealand needs more foster carers, from all cultures and walks of life, to ensure every child in need is given their chance in life. Your decision to foster could be the most rewarding choice of your life, for everyone involved.
Key Assets know that providing support is really important in helping our fostering families feel confident and well-equipped in their role. If foster families are supported this can really make a difference to the experience of children and young people in care.
For carers looking after children and young people with complex needs Key Assets provide:
· A generous foster carer allowance when there is a child in your care
· 24/7 support from a Key Assets social worker
· Allocated Key Assets social worker who will visit you at your home at least once a month
· Support groups where you can meet other foster carers facilitated by a Key Assets Social Worker
· On-going training and development
· Access to therapeutic intervention if required
Think you could become a foster carer? Contact Key Assets on 09 263 5151 or visit iwanttofoster.co.nz for more information.
