FOSTER FAMILY
SUPPORT SERVICES
Jingle and Romel
Foster Parents
Foster Family Support Services helps foster parents, their family members, and extended family caregivers.
When substance use, mental health challenges, or violence impact a family’s ability to safely care for their child, FSGV works with the Ministry of Children and Family Development (MCFD) to help find the right placement for them. While each child’s family situation is unique, temporary and long-term foster placements with another family member or caregivers create a safe place for them.

You can support foster families like Jingle and Romel
Being a foster parent is a career. It takes education, dedication, and a passion for ensuring young people feel like they have a place to call home during a tumultuous time in their lives.
At FSGV, our counsellors are there to help foster families provide the best outcome for every child in care – whether their temporary or long-term. By supporting families like Jingle and Romel, you are sending a message of hope to children in care, caregivers, and birth and foster parents.
