Becoming a foster parent is a human-centered profession involving the temporary care of a child, providing a stable and secure living environment, and supporting their development, education, and well-being. Commitment, availability, listening skills, attention, and kindness are the essential qualities sought. Approved families receive professional support and adapted training.
The process to become a foster parent includes several steps: initial contact with the Department's services, an information meeting, dossier submission, project evaluation, and obtaining approval. The Department then offers recruitment on a permanent contract (CDI), with remuneration varying based on the number of children welcomed.
