  • Foster Parents Needed

    Help kids in your community…for a week, a month, a year…a lifetime.

    FRAMINGHAM, MA – Dare Family Services is looking for loving people with room in their homes and in their hearts to help a child in need. Become a foster parent!

    Every child deserves the chance to grow up in a nurturing home with a loving family. Unfortunately, this is not the case for many children. Thousands of children are abused or neglected by the people who are supposed to care for them the most: their parents. These children are left broken and vulnerable, stripped of their ability to trust. They have damaged self images and never believe they are truly safe and secure.

    Dare Family Services is a private, nonprofit social services agency which provides a highly specialized type of foster care called Mentor. Dare provides Mentor homes for children who have been removed from their biological families due to abuse or neglect.

    Every day, compassionate individuals open their homes and their hearts to give these children a second chance. These specialized foster parents, or Mentors, provide care, support, and help guide children into adulthood.

    Dare Family Services currently looking for homes in MetroWest for local foster kids. If you have a desire to help a child in need of a family, please call Marilyn, (mdavidson@darefamily.org) or Janelle (Jmoore@darefamily.org)at (617) 628-3696. Please visit our website at www.darefamily.org

    “Being a Mentor gives you a satisfaction not found in a typical 9-5 job. It’s a unique way to make a difference and give a young person a new chance in life.” – Janet R (Mentor).
