Foster Care and Licensing with Children’s Home – Peoria, Tazewell, and Woodford, Illinois Counties

Let It Be Us offers a series of virtual educational events on topics surrounding Foster Care and Adoption in the State of Illinois.

If you’ve ever felt a pull to help a child in need but weren’t sure where to start, this evening is for you.

Join Let It Be Us and The Children’s Home for a free live webinar to learn what it really means to become a foster parent in Illinois. This casual, welcoming conversation will give you the chance to hear directly from foster care professionals and experienced foster parents in a comfortable, no-pressure setting.

During this interactive session, we’ll talk about:
• What foster care looks like today in Illinois
• The process of becoming a licensed foster parent
• The types of children who need homes right now
• The support available to foster families
• Your questions about fostering

There is a tremendous need for safe, caring homes for children in our community. By opening your home, you can provide the stability, safety, and hope a child needs during a difficult time.

This opportunity is especially relevant for families living in Peoria County, Tazewell County, and Woodford County, but anyone interested in learning more is welcome. Whether you are just exploring the idea or ready to take the next step, we invite you to join the conversation.
