NIA Foster Care

The NIA foster care program provides comprehensive and intensive child placement services, which include clinical and case management activities. This program serves children from birth to twenty-years old. The ultimate goal of the NIA program is to promote and achieve permanency (reunification with parents and/or family members, adoption or transition to independent living). In every case, best practices are used to minimize the length of stay in the foster care system, however, as long as a child is in our care his or her safety and welfare is our primary concern.
