Pennsylvania State Foster Parent Association
That site has great info.
Pennsylvania Foster Parent Recruitment
Individuals interested in becoming foster parents must be at least 21 years of age, pass a medical examination and several background clearances. Several other factors also are assessed:
Ability to provide care, nurturing and supervision for the child
Demonstration of an emotionally stable environment
Ties with family, friends and community
Relationship with own children (if applicable)
Ability to meet the special needs of the child
In addition to receiving training and support, foster parents are reimbursed for the cost of caring for a foster child. Health care costs are generally covered.
