Questions: I am a 58 single man and I am considering fostering. 

  1. My first question is how much of a bias is there against men? 
  2. What are the unique challenges that single foster dads face that discourage so many? 
  3. What can we do to get more single foster dads to help families reunify, foster, and possibly adopt?

Resources:

  • Creating a Support Network as a Single Adoptive, Foster, or Kinship Parent (Article)
