Waterford Country School Foster Care
Our foster care programs are home-based, intensive treatment programs where professional support is wrapped around caregivers to maximize the family’s effectiveness and the child’s gains. The Therapeutic foster care program is designed to address each child’s special needs through a team philosophy that includes case workers, therapists and foster parents. We provide our foster parents with specialized training and education in managing behaviors, mental health issues and parenting techniques. We know this is a challenge and we’ll be there every step of the way to provide you with support.
