There has been a lot of new followers on here lately so we wanted to take a moment to tell everyone a little bit about our agency and why they should consider Potomac Center when choosing an agency to foster/open their home with!
We have an office in Moorefield and Romney but serve Grant, Hardy, Pendleton, Hampshire, Morgan, Berkeley, Mineral, Tucker, Randolph, Lewis, and Upshur. We have been serving the community for 30+ years!
Potomac Center is a small agency and because of this we have several benefits!
•WE ARE ABLE TO OFFER MORE PERSONALIZED SUPPORT/ATTENTION TO EACH FOSTER FAMILY.
Smaller caseloads allow caseworkers to dedicate more time to each family and child, fostering stronger relationships and ensuring more individualized care and attention.
Easier access to agency points of contact and individual caseworkers facilitates smoother communication and faster responses to questions or concerns. Foster parents are less likely to feel like just "a number" and more like part of a supportive team within a smaller agency structure.
•POTOMAC CENTER FOCUSES ON MATCHING CHILDREN WITH FAMILIES.
Small agencies are able to take a more comprehensive approach when matching foster children with families, considering a broader range of factors beyond technical placement rules. They can invest more time in understanding each child's unique circumstances and needs, leading to more suitable placements.
The whole state of WV is in desperate need of foster homes for children of all ages. We have children staying in hotels because foster homes and shelters are full. It is truly heartbreaking! Please consider opening up your home to foster children during a time that they need someone the most!
