Foster parents need to have positive parenting skills, patience, stability, maturity, and a love of children. It is also helpful to know and understand childhood development. Foster parents work with staff from community agencies toward identified goals for the children in their care. This position is to serve children with high behavioral needs. Applicants must be willing to work with a variety of behaviors including but not limited to physical and verbal aggression, and trauma-related responses. Sample Supports is a licensed Child Placement Agency through the State of Colorado and we are offering comprehensive Youth
