FOSTER PARENTS URGENTLY NEEDED... !!
Kia ora.
Our agency is looking for committed and compassionate foster parents who might care for a young adolescent in their own home full time, or on regular weekends to provide respite for full time foster parents.
This is a salaried role and well supported with social work and after hours back up. At times it is not an easy vocation and you will need to know yourself and your triggers very well.
Our young people have had traumatic histories and this means they bring behaviours that reflect that trauma. They also show themselves to be resilient, strong, capable, funny, engaging and deserving of quality care. A full police and Oranga Tamariki clearance will be required for any foster parent.
If you are curious to know more, please contact Adam Bain, abain@wesleyca.org.nz 021734960.
