4. We've made it easier for you to become a foster. To start the process, simply complete and submit this short online Foster Introduction form that will tell us a little bit more about yourself and your home situation. We will then contact you by email to schedule a phone interview to get to know you better and answer any questions you may have. After the interview, and we all agree that you are ready to enter our foster program, we will have you sign a Foster Contract and you'll be ready to go!
