Community Service Foundation is looking for couples to become foster house-parents. Foster house-parents must be over 21 years old. House-parents are provided with a beautiful residence, a seven passenger van and all living expenses. One parent receives a full time salary as the primary houseparent; the other may work at an independent full-time job in the community while receiving a part-time salary. Because all expenses are paid, for many couples this is an excellent opportunity to save toward a house or to boost your retirement.

Comprehensive training and support for all foster house-parents are provided. All children who live in these homes attend a school or day treatment program. This program has a proven track record for helping troubled young people find a positive path in life.
