Some children come to Lucas County Children Services (LCCS) with significant physical health, behavioral, developmental, and mental health needs. Fortunately, LCCS is among a select group of Ohio counties that maintains a group of “Treatment” foster parents with specialized skills and training that help these youth succeed close to home.

Who are the Youth in Treatment Foster Care?
Youth who require Treatment-level care have generally experienced significant trauma. Many present challenging behaviors. They may have developmental disabilities or mental health concerns. Some may be minor mothers and need guidance not available in their own families. All benefit from the enhanced structure that Treatment care provides, while at the same time, remaining in the community.
Who can be a Treatment Caregiver?
Treatment foster parents must have a minimum of two years of family foster care experience, and have completed a Treatment-specific training program. Prospective Treatment foster parents with specialized professional skills in areas such as nursing, developmental disabilities, Autism, mental health, and other related fields, may be exempt from the training requirement. Alternatively, if you have experience in parenting a child with developmental delays or special medical needs, we may be able to waive the requirement for two years of family foster care experience and require only that you complete the foster care preservice training program.
You’ll be Supported
The youth’s “treatment team” — his or her caseworker, your Treatment foster caseworker, and any service providers, meet regularly to discuss the youth’s progress. LCCS Treatment foster parents are a tight knit group and support each other through networking, advice, and respite.

Foster Care FAQs
If you are married or if you have a partner (living in your home), both of you will need to attend preservice training.
How long do I have to complete training?
The 24-hour preservice training, home study and licensing must be completed in 18 months or less. The time starts from the first day of training to approval of the homestudy.
How long does it take to get licensed?
It depends on how quickly you complete your paperwork, get your fingerprints done and get the appropriate references and letters. From there, we have a home study worker meet with you in your home for a site and safety inspection and to review the types and number of children you’re interested in fostering or adopting. The entire process can take anywhere from two to six months. It must be completed within 18 months without starting the entire process over again.
What type of background checks do you do for foster parents?
Everyone in the household over the age of 18 must do a BCI criminal record check and be fingerprinted. JIS checks are also done for any children over the age of 10.
Do foster children need to have their own bedrooms?
No, but they need their own bed. Same-gender children may share a bedroom with other foster children or your own children. Bunk beds are acceptable for children over 6. Children cannot share sleeping quarters with you if they are over 12 months old.
How soon will I have children in my home?
Once you are licensed, it could be at any time. When a child needs a foster family, we go through the list of available homes and try to match the family to the child’s needs as closely as possible.
Suppose I am taking a vacation or are not available?
Let your caseworker know. Each foster family needs a backup plan or an alternative care plan that has been pre-approved by LCCS.
Do I have a choice about the children that I foster?
Yes. You will fill out a child characteristic inventory form about the types of children and behaviors you are willing to accept. Then when the caseworker calls about a child (or children), he/she will provide you with information about the child and you can make your decision.
Right now, the agency’s greatest need is for families willing to take babies and groups of brothers and sisters, but we need families to care for children and teens of all ages.
Does it matter that I’m not married or don’t make a lot of money?
You can be married or single, a homeowner or a renter. The only financial requirement is that you have enough of an income to support yourself and your family aside from the stipend you will receive to care for your foster children.
Do foster parents have to stay at home with the children or can they work full-time?
Many foster children attend daycare – paid for by ODJFS, or LCCS when funds are available – which allows foster parents to work outside the home. Foster parents just need to apply through ODJFS.
My children are grown and out of the house. Am I too old to be a foster parent?
There is no age requirement (other than you must be at least 18 years of age). You must also have a doctor certify that you are physically able to care for a child. Many “empty nesters” find foster parenting to be a rewarding experience.
I don’t have any children. Does that rule me out?
No. You just need to be a responsible person who will make a commitment to children through the training provided by LCCS.
Once I take in a foster child, am I on my own?
No. Children need stability, and LCCS offers foster parents plenty of support to maintain children in their home. Before you even take in your first child, the LCCS staff works with you to develop a profile of the type of child best suited to the experience and capabilities of your family. Caseworkers – one for you and one for the child – visit your home monthly to talk through any concerns you have. We provide free, ongoing training so you are constantly learning new tips and strategies for caring for children. Counseling is provided for children who need help understanding and processing their trauma.
What other supports do I receive?
Foster parents receive a monthly stipend to care for the child based on his/her age and needs. The child will also receive periodic clothing vouchers. We provide some assistance for childcare and help you apply for child care support through ODJFS. The Lucas County Foster Parent Association provides an opportunity to network with other foster parents. The agency provides recreational opportunities, such as vouchers for sporting events and local performances, as they are made available.
Is there ongoing training for foster parents?
Yes, there is additional training each year. Family foster caregivers are required to complete 30 hours in two years. Treatment foster caregivers are required to complete 45 hours. We provide the training at no charge. A calendar of training opportunities is made available each month, and you can register online in CAPS LMS. Your caseworker will recommend specific training classes for you based on your strengths and the needs of the children in your home. These training are spelled out in your Individual Training Needs Assessment (ITNA).
Do I have to provide medical insurance for a foster child in my home?
No. Foster parents do not pay any of a child’s medical expenses, other than over-the counter medicines and supplies. You are reimbursed for all prescriptions covered by Medicaid.
What kind of situations do the children come from?
Thirty-nine percent of the children we see have suffered physical abuse. Thirty-one percent have suffered neglect. Ten percent have been victims of sexual abuse. Twenty percent are victims of emotional abuse.
Do children in foster care see their parents?
We arrange for children in foster care to see their parents in supervised settings, usually here at the agency or at one of a handful of community centers. These visits take place while parents work their case plan, and continue as long as the family’s goal is reunification.
Haven’t foster children been abused so much that they’re beyond repair?
No. Children are amazingly resilient. Foster parents can make the difference by providing a structured, nurturing environment. Also, along with the supports from LCCS and other community resources these children can grow up to be productive adults in our society. How we respond to their needs now will largely determine what kind of citizens they will be in the future.
How long do foster children stay with me?
Children placed in your home for foster care can stay anywhere from a few days to a couple of years. Generally, the stay is from 9 to 18 months. The Juvenile Court usually wants to make a permanency plan for the child after about a year.
What if the child isn’t able to return home?
Sometimes, this happens…birth parents have problems that they aren’t able to fix. The Juvenile Court decides whether to sever parental rights. If the judge makes this decision, the child comes into the permanent custody of the agency. From that point, we begin the process of finding a new, adoptive family. If possible, we try to identify a relative to adopt the child. Very often, foster parents adopt the foster children that they’ve cared for, since they’ve become part of the family.
Homestudy Process
You’ve decided that you want to learn more about becoming a foster and/or adoptive parent. You may have come to that decision on your own, or after speaking with a member of our recruiting team.
Your first step is to register for, and complete, the state-mandated pre-service orientation training. This 36-hour program will familiarize you with the rules you must follow as a foster parent, the needs of the children entering care, and other relevant information.
Once you have completed the training, you will be asked to complete an application to foster and/or adopt, along with other documents that collect information about you and your family. This may include, but is not limited to: physical exams and medical statements; financial statements; employment verification; background checks, and a safety audit of your home. An instruction guide accompanies these materials.
Once you have submitted all of the required documentation, LCCS will assign a state certified adoption assessor to guide you through the actual home study process. The worker assesses your family’s readiness and appropriateness to care for children who have suffered maltreatment. It is not a single visit; rather, it is a series of activities that help you decide whether fostering and/or adopting is right for you. It will include information about the way family members in the home interact; historical information that may affect your ability to safely care for children placed in your home; information about any pets in the home; and the physical safety of the environment.
At that point, your home study worker will submit all of your documentation, and a conclusion is drawn as to whether your home study can be recommended to the State of Ohio for approval.
The home study process can take up to six months to complete, but many families complete the process more quickly.
