Over 1,400 children in New Hampshire need foster families each year. While every foster child is unique, they all share one common experience - they have been removed from their homes because their families were unable to care for them appropriately. They are all in need of positive parental figures to bring them up in a safe, healthy and nurturing environment.

The ultimate goal of therapeutic foster care is to help the children reach their potential as members of society by learning positive skills to help them increase their self-esteem, recognize their own innate value as a person, restore their trust in other people and help them build and maintain lasting relationships with their foster families and beyond. Lutheran Social Services works closely with the New Hampshire Division for Children, Youth and Families to provide highly personalized supports for foster families who can parent a child in need. These supports are referred to as Individualized Service Options and provide foster families with higher levels of support than other types of foster care.

Foster parents may help a child for only a few days or for a much longer time. Some foster placements end in adoption and become “forever families.”  We hope you will join the list of families who accept the challenges and experience the joys of being a foster parent.
