  1. I'm in Ohio and some rules may be different, but I'm sure the process is the same in most states.  The first thing you should do is contact your local child and family services office.  There is almost always a website and a contact person.  They will be able to assist you in getting signed up for classes.  You have to get certified to be a foster parent and based on state so many hours are required.  After classes, you (and spouse and children if applicable) will have to get full physicals and complete a homestudy.  A prepared homestudy can be found on www.fosterparenting.com.  (If you are married, your spouse will have to attend classes also.)  When the homestudy is completed, then you will be in the system and just have to wait until you are matched to a child.  

    Just remember, while you may have requests on what kind of child you get, it's not matching a child to a parent, but a parent to a child.  Just be open minded and remember that they have been through a lot in their life already.
