BECOMING A FOSTER PARENT

For over 30 years, McMan has been providing foster care services in Edmonton and Northern Alberta. Our foster care programs offer safe, caring homes to children who, for a variety of reasons, are unable to live with their own families. While a foster home is usually temporary, our ultimate goal is to help children return to their families or be adopted, ensuring their journey is filled with love, hope, and stability.

- Do you see yourself as caring, patient, and flexible?

- Do you believe that relationships and respect have a positive influence on child development?

- Can you communicate effectively and professionally with other team members?

If these statements describe you, then fostering may be right for you!

What We Are Looking For:

We are looking for compassionate caregivers who believe in the importance of natural connections in a child/youth’s life. Foster caregivers are expected to be actively engaged with the biological family/family of origin and the siblings of children and youth in their care. If you are ready to provide love, stability, and care for vulnerable children, we encourage you to apply and become part of the McMan family.

McMan Edmonton and Northern Alberta, including areas such as Fort McMurray, Grande Prairie, Whitecourt, Bonnyville, Edson, Cold Lake and surrounding communities.

Applicants must own or rent their own home.

Dedicated Foster Care worker assigned to your family.
Monthly and as-needed meetings for ongoing support
Access to a 24-hour on-call system for assistance
Advocacy and connection with other foster parents.
Comprehensive training to enhance your skills in trauma-informed care
Tax-free per diem to help cover the child’s basic needs from $41-55 per night/per child
