Foster care is a temporary living arrangement for children who cannot live with their biological families due to various reasons, such as neglect, abuse, or family crises. In foster care, children are placed with foster families who provide a safe and nurturing environment until they can either return home or be adopted. The goal of foster care is to ensure the well-being of children while working towards a permanent solution. Social workers and child welfare agencies oversee the process, ensuring that the needs of the children are met and that they receive appropriate support and care during their time in foster care.
