I can tell you that organisations and agencies cannot get enough foster carers - I work with the department of child safety and associated agencies - contact these people and they will answer your questions about becoming a foster carer - this is an org in queensland but I'm sure the same principles apply interstate
Foster Care Queensland | IFYS - good luck! Agree with Joey, complete shortage of foster carers. |
