Foster Care Information
The decision to become a foster carer requires serious consideration and an understanding of the impact foster care can have in your life. Key Assets Fostering aims to provide all prospective foster carers with as much foster care information as possible.
As you search this website for foster care information, you may come across terminology you are unfamiliar with. Visit our glossary page for an explanation of fostering terms.
Background information about foster care
If you are thinking of becoming a foster carer, you will need to understand exactly what is foster care and how we operate as a non-governmental foster care agency in Queensland.
Choosing to become a foster carer will have a major impact on your lifestyle. You will be asked to share your home and your time with children and young people you don’t know. Often, children in foster care with Key Assets Fostering will have behavioural difficulties or complex needs.
For more information about the impact foster care can have on your life and the lives of people around you, read about how fostering can affect your family.
The realities of foster care
Some of the best foster care information comes from foster carers themselves. To find out what daily life is like for a foster carer, see our foster carer case studies.
You can also find out more information about the details of a career in foster care by reading about fostering allowances and some of our most frequently asked questions.
