Shelter, Inc.

Shelter, Inc. is looking for families who can open their hearts and their homes to infants, preschoolers, school -age children and adolescents who have been displaced from their parents, families and homes due to abuse, neglect or family crisis.  These children and adolescents may likely come from a problematic environment and need the support of loving, caring and concerned adults who are willing to get involved in creating new opportunities and a safe, secure home.  Shelter, Inc. licenses all our foster families and provides training and support from our staff social workers.
