Help for children in need: foster families urgently wanted in Barnstorf!

In Barnstorf there is a lively interest in the foster child aid! At an information evening, concerned citizens gathered who had one in my head: "Can I help a child whose parents are overwhelmed?" Heike Busse-Taphorn and Christiane Hinnenkamp from the Nursing Child Aid of the Diepholz district were ready to clarify and to remember the responsibility and challenges of foster parents.

"We are looking for people for all forms of care!" Explained Busse-Taphorn in emphasis. The impression is clear: it is not about finding a child for parents. Instead, it is meticulously checked whether the prerequisites are available to offer a child a new home and relieve the biological parents. The two specialist women pointed out that not only the high demands of the network to the foster parents, but also the challenges of the children are often stressful. In particular, children from difficult conditions, such as drug addicts or violent environments, need this support.

A call to help in emergency

The two experts know about the great need. In the Diepholz region there are more inquiries about foster families than offers. Social workers point out that youth care not only provides temporary solutions through sponsors and foster families, but also aims at permanent integration. This support can range from temporary accommodation to long -term care of a child. Sponsors are a load -bearing pillar that supports and promote affected children through leisure activities.

The specialist women informed the interested parties about the next steps: Application documents include medical certificates, a certificate of good conduct and income determination. "We support you in filling out!" Emphasize the two, who enthusiastically outline the way to the foster family. The big goal? To offer children from difficult conditions a loving home and to promote them in their development. A wish that falls on fertile ground in Barnstorf!
