Becoming a foster parent with Amara involves going through our home study process. In this episode, we'll talk more in depth about what that actually means. We'll start by exploring why a home study is even needed. Why does the state need so much information about me and my family to become foster parents? What is the point of this long process?
We'll also talk about the various components of the home study, including the types of information gathered and the topics you can expect to encounter during a home study process. Finally, we'll explain how Amara’s home study process works and the steps to complete it through our agency.

The first few days of foster care are a time of great adjustment for everyone involved. There can be big feelings for both foster parents and children and youth. In this episode, we explore what those first few days feel like. Join us as we talk with former foster parents Paul & Joe about their memories of those first few days, as well as Kristen, an Amara foster care specialist, and Katie who shares ideas about supporting foster families during the first few days - even if you can't be a foster parent yourself!
