CDA calls for more foster parents

The Child Development Agency (CDA) is appealing to persons to open their homes to children eight years and under who need the care of foster families.

Making the call on February 8 at a national church service, held at the Ridgemount United Church, in Mandeville, Manchester, to mark Foster Care Week, Allison Anderson, chief executive officer of the CDA, said foster parenting would make a marked difference in the lives of over 350 children.

attract more persons

She added that if the CDA was going to realise its objective of significantly reducing the number of children in residential care on the basis that the family is the preferred environment for raising children, it was essential that the programme attract more persons.

The CDA also commended the support given to the foster-care programme by religious institutions.

Foster Care Week ends today and persons between 25 and 65 years of age can be foster parents.
