The Department of Health and Social Development is looking for information to inform a potential proposal requesting funding to build additional bedrooms on existing homes in the Nunatsiavut Region.
It is our hope this strategy is to allow children in the care of the Department of Children, Seniors & Social Development (CSSD) to return or remain living in their home communities.
Anyone interested in becoming a foster parent would need to follow the guidelines set out by CSSD, including submitting a clear criminal record, child protection check, as well as a medical.
As part of Caring for our Children’s project, DHSD staff will meet with you to complete the foster home assessment.
If you are a Nunatsiavut Beneficiary and interested in being a foster parent, but do not have the space, can contact Kerry Davis or Danielle Baikie.
