About Key Assets Fostering
Key Assets Fostering is a non-government fostering agency providing high quality foster care services in conjunction with the Department for Families and Communities in the following areas of South Australia:
- Adelaide Hills
- Eastern Adelaide
- Southern Adelaide
- Western Adelaide
- Barossa
- Fleurieu & Kangaroo Island
We receive placement requests for children and young people experiencing serious problems who are likely to make considerable demands upon their foster carers.
We have found that with a unique combination of knowledge, experience, professional skills and the right fostering support and foster carer training packages, foster carers can make a positive and lasting difference to the lives of children in foster care in South Australia.
Key Assets Fostering is available to place children aged 5 to 17 years old. Many of our current referrals are for long term foster care placements; however we also recruit carers for a wide range of other placement types including respite care.
Across the Group
Key Assets Fostering was established in 2007 with operations in Western Australia, South Australia and Queensland. As part of Fostering First International, the international fostering arm of the Core Assets Group, we are part of a multinational company encompassing foster care providers across four continents. Group wide, we are recognised for producing positive outcomes for children in foster care.
