If working with children and families’ feels like more than a job—if it feels like your calling—this could be your next step.

As a Foster Parent Development Specialist with Health Connect America, you’ll use your experience with children, families, and foster parents to make a broader impact. You’ll recruit and develop foster families, guide prospective parents through licensing, provide training and support, and build community connections that help children find safe, nurturing homes.
