Monterey County Association of Families Caring for Children
The Monterey County Association of Families Caring for Children is a dynamic organization of foster parents and community members who have a common interest - the welfare of children. In collaboration with Family and Children's Services our common goals are steadily being achieved. We are dedicated to supporting caregivers of foster and adopted children and we network together to form an effective voice for children.
All caregivers are encouraged to join the Association as regular members, and other individuals interested in the welfare of children are welcome to join as associate members and take an active role in the Association. Parents give each other the needed support and encouragement necessary to accomplish a successful fostering experience. The expertise and resources of seasoned foster parents are invaluable.
Foster is challenging, but the rewards are great. We welcome and encourage your to join our Association.
