Kinship care is the temporary placement of a child with a family member or someone close to the family. The ultimate goal of kinship care is for the child to reunify with their birth family.
Fostering is the temporary placement of a child in your care after their removal from an unfit living environment. The ultimate goal of foster care is reunification with their birth family.
Adoption is the permanent placement of a child in your care. You become the legal guardian of the child, and the birth family’s involvement in the child’s life may vary from case to case.
