Benefits of Therapeutic Foster Care

Definition

The benefits of therapeutic foster care extend across every dimension of foster care and adoption support services. From emotional healing and restored relationships to community strengthening and generational impact, supporting foster and adoptive families, children in care, and those aging out of the system through training, respite, mentoring, and advocacy to ensure every child has a safe, loving, permanent home. Individuals and families who receive proper therapeutic foster care experience measurable improvements in wellbeing, stability, and hope.

Why It Matters

Understanding the benefits of therapeutic foster care encourages individuals and families to seek help. Over 400,000 children are in foster care in the United States at any given time, and approximately 20,000 age out annually without a permanent family, facing dramatically higher risks of homelessness, incarceration, and poverty. The positive impact of effective therapeutic foster care ripples outward from individuals to families, communities, and future generations.
