Inhaltsangabe

When children enter foster care, they often meet many new adults—social workers, foster parents, therapists, judges, and more. I Am in Foster Care: An Introduction to Foster Care Helpers gently explains who these helpers are and how each one supports a child’s safety, well-being, and future.

Told in the reassuring voice of Logan, a young child in foster care, this book offers clear, comforting explanations alongside soft watercolor illustrations that help kids feel safe, loved, and understood.

Perfect for reading together, this foster care book for kids invites children to ask questions, explore their feelings, and see themselves as important and cared for—no matter what.

A gentle tool for foster parents, social workers, and caregivers, this book provides words and images that explain foster care to kids in a simple, hopeful way.

Inside you’ll find:

• Simple, child-friendly explanations of foster care helpers

• Warm, inclusive illustrations with diverse families and caregivers

• A Frequently Asked Questions section answering the big questions kids often have

• Reassuring messages about safety, love, and belonging

This resource is invaluable for foster families, CASA volunteers, therapists, and anyone supporting kids in foster care. It helps children make sense of a complex system while giving caregivers a way to guide, explain, and comfort.
