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.
We know that great foster care is about more than qualifications and job titles; it’s having life experience, strength, empathy and the will to provide children with a safe home.
