FOSTER CARE AND ADOPTIONS
Redwood Community Services has been providing foster care services since our incorporation in 1995. Our foster care programs are designed to create a supported livi2n0g2e0nBvoiroanrdmoefnDt ifroerctcohrisldren and youth in the foster care system. Children and youth are placed with approved resource families, who are educated through a multi-faceted training program in order to prepare them for meeting the social, emotional, and behavioral needs of the children and youth in their care. To address the differing needs of the children and youth within the foster care system and complexity of family dynamics, Redwood Community Services offers an array of foster care options including foster to adopt.

"It was the right time and the right fit for our adoption of Jameson. He just belonged," proud mom, Jami shares.
RCS is proud to have helped 2 families finalize adoptions in 2020 including the White family who welcomed son, Jameson, into their forever family March 13, 2020 just days before the Covid-19 Shelter in Place was implemented. The effects of the pandemic have reached far and wide with many court dates being delayed for months at a time. The RCS FFA program has worked with families to support them through these delays and altered adoption celebrations to meet social distancing standards. The White family is just one example of our dedication to helping children and youth find permanency with safe and loving families.
