Foster Care

Foster care resources help youth and child welfare professionals

Adam Robe, a former foster child, is now a child welfare professional and author who delivers foster care trainings and keynote speeches. (Need to line up an engaging speaker for your next event? See what Adam has to offer!)

Seeking quality books for children in foster care? Look no further. Adam wrote the popular Robbie'S Trail Through Foster Care series to help children in care adjust better to tough changes in life. The series is designed for an adult to read the story with the child; work through the activity book together; and use the adult guide to help spark discussion, guide adult responses, etc.

Items in the series can be purchased individually or as a 3-book set:

• The original Robbie's Trail Through Foster Care story (now sold as a stand-alone story!)
• An activity book, which covers control, self-esteem, feelings, anger management, communication and more (activities now sold as a stand-alone book!)
• An adult guide with tips for helping children in out-of-home care; also includes instructions for facilitating the activities

You may also want to check out the Robbie Readers - "quick reads" that feature activities in the back of each book. Titles include: Moving To Another Foster Home, Wanting To Belong and Meeting My Casa.

Child welfare professionals order the Foster care? What's that? brochure to give to children in foster care. This piece explains foster care and addresses questions commonly asked by children who enter out-of-home care. It also helps children understand the roles of caseworkers, therapists, guardians ad litem and CASA volunteers. Download a free copy or order a set of 25.
