The Division of Family & Children Services (DFCS) Caregiver Recruitment and Retention Unit (CRRU) is charged with recruiting, retaining and supporting foster, adoptive and kinship caregivers. Since its inception, CRRU has managed the Foster Georgia website, inquiry line and chat feature. In addition, CRRU coordinates statewide recruitment efforts to bring awareness to the need for foster and adoptive parents. To ensure that prospective caregivers are able to advance through the approval process in a timely manner and receive the required continued parent development hours after approval, CRRU seeks to contract with a qualified provider(s) to provide pre-service and post-service training services. If you’re interested in becoming a foster caregiver, call (877) 423-4746.

A friendship-based youth mentoring program, Legacy Youth Mentoring serves Jackson County, Jefferson City, and Commerce City School Systems.

Volunteers are trained and matched with students who need the encouragement of a mentor. Quality mentoring relationships have powerful positive effects on young people in a variety of personal, academic, and professional situations such as connections to career exploration or development. Ultimately, mentoring connects a young person to personal growth and development. A mentor who can guide, motivate, and encourage their mentee will play a meaningful role in the life of a young person. The 40 Developmental Assets research by Search Institute tells us that kids are most successful when they have three or more non-parent adult role models in their lives. Having multiple people surrounding your child will only help to ensure they grow up into happy, successful adults.

Mentors build supportive friendships with their mentee, helping the young person discover their STRENGTHS to guide them toward growth and success. Mentors share hands-on skills, life skills, experience, and friendship with their student which will expand their network of support. Mentors receive training through Legacy Youth Mentoring which will help them learn to support their mentee by helping them identify their natural SPARKS and build upon their strengths. Their volunteers will also use 5 Key Actions as mentors: 1) Show they CARE 2) Challenge GROWTH 3) Provide SUPPORT 4) Share Power 5) Expand Possibilities
