Fostering in Leinster
Are you interested in fostering in Leinster? This page offers you some useful information about becoming a foster carer in your county.
Why do we need foster carers in Leinster?
When circumstances lead to a child or young person being taken into care, the preferred option by the HSE is to place them with a fostering family.
The trouble is, there's a shortage of foster carers in Leinster. As a result, residential placements may be the only viable option.
Therefore, Leinster needs foster carers to provide a safe, secure and stable fostering environment for children in Ireland’s care system.
So whether you’re looking to foster in Dublin, foster in Meath, foster in Kildare, foster in Wicklow, or beyond, we'd love to speak to you.
