Families Sought for Foster Teens
The Orange County Probation Department needs nurturing homes for teenagers.
Probation officers sometimes look for suitable families to care for teens without homes or for those who cannot live with their families. Screening of youth and families is done to ensure placements are suitable.
Training is required for parents, and monthly support meetings are held to make sure the relationships are working. Financial compensation is available. Information: Deputy Probation Officer Lisa Carpenter at (714) 935-7537
