  • Will you be the Foster Home we are waiting for?

    Currently, there is a high demand for foster homes that will accommodate and be made accessible for sibling groups and older children.

    SIBLING GROUPS: Keeping families – sisters and brothers – together is an important part of child development.  We need homes with space and room in their hearts for the possibility of being placed with 2… 3… 4 children at one time.  Child welfare workers work extra hard to keep siblings together, and CSSUP is calling on our U.P. community to help us make this possible! 

    OLDER CHILDREN: Those especially feeling lost and forgotten.  The older children placed in foster care are often our most vulnerable.  We need homes willing to finally be that stable, safe place they need to grow and develop.

    If you are willing to take that big step to help a member of your community in need, please contact us at (906) 828-5003
