ABOUT ME

At C.J. Foster Home Development Consulting Firm, we bridge the gap between potential foster families and foster/adoption agencies, ensuring that no one feels lost in the process. We provide guidance, support, and real solutions so you can focus on what truly matters—helping children heal and thrive.For over a decade, I have worked in With over a decade of experience spanning nearly every facet of the foster care system, I have served as a mentor, foster home developer, case manager, Licensed Child Placing Agency Administrator, and Executive Director. Additionally, my experience working in a residential treatment center has given me firsthand insight into the complexities of high-needs placements and therapeutic interventions. This comprehensive background enables me to navigate the system from multiple perspectives, providing a deep understanding of its challenges, opportunities, and the critical needs of both children and caregivers.- Foster parents feel buried in paperwork instead of focused on children.- Agencies struggle under endless regulations while families’ real needs are overlooked.- Good people leave—not because they don’t care, but because the system makes it impossible to keep going.I have watched hope erode under the weight of compliance. The people who enter this field to serve children and families are exhausted, discouraged, and disillusioned. I’ve questioned if I should walk away—but I keep coming back.Because I still believe in what foster care is meant to be.- When a child finds a forever home.
- When a foster parent feels empowered instead of overwhelmed.
- When agencies can focus on what truly matters—helping children heal and thrive.
That’s why I started C.J. Foster Home Development.I wanted to:
✔ Cut through the red tape and create real solutions for agencies and families.
✔ Support CPAs so they don’t have to struggle alone.
✔ Bring foster parents back to the heart of their calling—caring for children, not just checking boxes.
Yes, compliance matters. But when compliance overshadows human experience, we have a problem.Foster parents need real support.
Agencies need relief.
Children need stability.
C.C.J. Foster Home Development bridges the gap between compliance and care—ensuring the foster care system doesn’t lose sight of the people it was created to serve.
