Families For Children anticipates opening a new San Jose area office!
To better serve Adoptive and Foster Parents in the Santa Clara County region, Families For Children will be opening a new office in the San Jose area in late summer 2009.
Families For Children, Inc is a full service California licensed private Non-Profit 501c(3) Adoption & Foster Family Agency.
Established in 1989, our mission is to find permanent families for children
through adoption & provide caring short term homes for children in foster care.
Our experienced professional staff, dedicated donors and volunteers have
worked together to build our established reputation for quality services.
Specializing in Adoption and Foster Care,
we are dedicated to providing care for children throughout Northern California with offices centrally located in
Roseville, Sacramento,
Stockton, Benicia, Oakland and Yuba City, and San Jose, California.
Our children are our future... our gift to a brighter tomorrow.
Families For Children is licensed by the State of California to work with over 30 California county adoption programs in
order to find loving, permanent adoptive families for children of all ages who have been removed from their biological parents and are currently dependents of the juvenile court.
Families For Children offers a full range of adoption services for parents with our
Concurrent Planning and Adoptive Matching Programs.
These comprehensive programs are designed to find the best possible matches between adoptive families and adoptive children.
With our full service adoption license, Families For Children can help
you through the entire adoption process, from certification and home study,
to finalization of your adoption. Our programs are designed
to enable adoptive parents to explore and consider all options in planning
for adoption. We offer one on one personal interviews to interested prospective parents at your convenience.
We pride ourselves in delivering prompt, professional service and are generally able to complete the home study & certification process in
under 3 months.

***We Need Foster Parents For Teens and Sibling Sets In All Offices***
The call for committed, caring foster families is great in communities across California. Foster families are a part of our
professional foster care team, fully supported by our staff in a close working relationship, providing foster children with the education,
stability, skills and support they need to succeed in the world as adults. Our social workers recognize and respond to the individual
needs of each child and support each family with
additional psychological, educational, recreational and treatment
resources. All of our foster parents are certified by Families For Children
to provide foster care and accept children placed through our agency.
We refer to our foster families as "professional parents". These families care for abused and neglected children in the
greater Sacramento, Vallejo, Stockton, Oakland areas and surrounding counties
and care for abused and neglected children who can be best helped in a family
setting, augmented by professional services. To assist new Foster Families in
beginning the process, we reimburse Fingerprinting Fees and CPR/First Aid training costs. We offer one on one personal interviews to
prospective foster parents at their convenience. For a detailed look at Foster Parent requirements and the placement process, please view our
Topics on Foster Care.
