About Us

There are more than 8,000 children in Tennessee's foster care system at any one time. Of these thousands of children, roughly 2% need a higher level of care due to intellectual and developmental disabilities. These at risk youth are often not receiving optimal care while waiting to be placed in specialized foster homes.

Additionally, there are over 7,000 adults with disabilities who need long term care and a place to call home. Nashville Foster Care provides specialized foster care services for those groups that are most in need.

To be approved as a foster-adoptive parent for children or adults in Tennessee you:

• Can work full-time

• Must be at least 21 years of age

• Must be a resident of the state of Tennessee
