Program accomplishments

  • FOSTER CARE PROGRAM - DURING THE 2024-2025 FISCAL YEAR, CFK PROVIDED CARE FOR 170 CHILDREN. FOSTER CARE HAS BEEN THE FOUNDATIONAL PROGRAM OF CFK FOR OVER 20 YEARS BY CERTIFYING FOSTER CAREGIVERS AND THUS, PROVIDING SAFE AND NURTURING HOMES FOR ABUSED AND NEGLECTED CHILDREN IN THE CUSTODY OF CHILD PROTECTIVE SERVICES. OVER THE YEARS WE HAVE SEEN A SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN THE NUMBER OF CHILDREN COMING INTO FOSTER CARE RESULTING IN A CONSTANT NEED TO RECRUIT AND CERTIFY NEW FOSTER CAREGIVERS. OHIO CHILDREN ARE ENTERING FOSTER CARE AT A RATE NEVER BEFORE SEEN. THE MAIN REASONS FOR THE INCREASE IN NUMBERS OF CHILDREN COMING INTO CARE REVOLVE AROUND PARENTAL DRUG ADDICTION AND DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. SOMETIMES, CHILDREN DO NOT RETURN HOME, AND FOSTER CAREGIVERS ARE NEEDED TO NOT ONLY FOSTER BUT TO ADOPT CHILDREN WHO ARE PLACED WITH THEM. 35 OF THE 170 PLACEMENTS SWITCHED FROM FOSTER TO ADOPTION STATUS.
