Partnership For Strong Families Inc

Adoption: to establish permanency for children to enable them to grow and develop to their fullest potential. To meet this goal, potential adoptive families are recruited for children whose parent's rights have been terminated, permanently committing the children to the department. Following adoption placement, the agency supervises the child's adoptive placement a minimum of 90 days before the adoption can be finalized. Post placement supervision is not required if the child has resided in the home in foster care status for 90 or more days. During the fiscal year ended 6/30/24 169 adoptions were finalized.

Out of home care: consists of protection services delivered to a child who has been placed outside the home of the biological parent or legal guardian. This includes emergency shelter, foster care, relative, or non-relative placement. This is a subset of the total number of clients in statement one above. Served approximately 1860 youth.
