fosterhood:

I’ve only heard this and it sounds like they are actually group homes (or institutions) rather than federal foster care.

fosterhood I’m doing this right now. It’s basically the same as domestic care but the kids come from other countries. It’s been amazing so far, and I’m receiving a placement Wednesday of a 16-year-old girl from Guatemala, after just having short term placement of two boys from Eritrea.

The program is funded by the Feds, and my agency is contracted and overseen by the state as a provider of foster care.
