The need for more foster homes in Marathon County continues to rise as we receive a record number of monthly referrals. A shortage of foster homes means we can place just a fraction of the kids referred to us in safe, loving homes. If you live in Marathon County and are ready to take the first step, we will expedite your application to license your home as quickly as possible.
While you are a foster parent, you will need dependable, consistent support. Whether it is 10 pm or a Sunday afternoon, our Marathon team will be available to help and support you while caring for children. Additionally, all CCR foster parents in Marathon receive weekly in-home visits from their assigned Case Manager. These home visits offer open dialog and communication about the week's successes and where additional support may be needed.
It takes a team approach and an agency that keeps its promises to support you along your fostering journey. CCR will offer you that and so much more.
Married, single, or partnered, we would love to discuss your desire to provide a loving home environment for children in need. Your home could be the safe home a child is desperately seeking. We can discuss how to qualify and how to get a license. Please contact us when you're ready to begin or to learn more. Our new foster parent advisor, has personal fostering experience and will walk you through the details.
