Welcome to Mountain Plains!

Every child deserves a safe, caring place to live and such a place is vital for children and youth in care.  Mountain Plains strive to recruit and support families who desire to open their home to children and youth.  Our foster care program encourages healthy growth and development by providing a stable and nurturing alternative family environment.

We serve children and youth 0 - 17.  Typically these are individuals who are experiencing a variety of social, emotional, and behavioural difficulties because of abuse and neglect.  These are children and youth who need professional support and can benefit in a home outside their family.

Our foster parents are both teachers and caregivers.  With the support provided by Mountain Plains, our families are able to assist the children:

• Develop positive relationships with others.
• Experience success in schools.
• Address / handle their feelings appropriately.

Every foster parent is different, but they all have at least 3 things in common; they are caring, willing to help and have a desire to make positive impacts in the life of a child or youth.

Thank you for your interest in becoming a foster parent.  If you are interested in finding out more information about becoming a foster parent, please click here to complete our online form or call us at (780) 429-5990.  We would be happy to provide you with additional information or meet with you to discuss interest.
