Does Mexico have a Foster Care system? Or only orphanages? Specifically in Tijuana.?

Question

I live in Mexico and would like to foster children in my home until they are able to be adopted. We are in Tijuana, there are over 40 orphanages. I plan to ask there in a few weeks, but have been thinking about it so much, I just want to know if such an idea exists in Mexico- Foster Care.

Answer 1

There is no goverment sponsored system.  The Catholic Church and other community organizations offer help placing children in families - but it is a very inefficient process.  There is nothing on the government national level.
