Welcome Hamilton County DJFS Foster Parents:

Recent Changes regarding Hamilton County Department of Job and Family Foster Parents!
A recent statement was issued: "As of Jan. 22, 2010 Hamilton County's Department of Job and Family Services will begin working exclusively with contracted providers for foster care services. All county foster homes will transfer to network providers. This change will allow the homes to receive additional support and resources, while the county can reallocate its limited resources to more urgent areas of need." - source: Hamilton County DJFS
We would like to schedule a time to meet with your family individually to discuss any questions you may have regarding the transfer process. Please call April Logan at 800-927-1018 to schedule an in home meeting.
Diversion has experience working with younger children and children with special medical needs as well as sibling groups. Call to find out more about our experience by contacting Stacy at 800-824-3007.
