Can I foster?

Jo Barton

Foster Carer and community Support Worker Jo always wanted a big family.

Foster Carers are no ordinary people. It takes commitment, patience and an open mind to help children and young people walk through their individual situations. There is no greater reward than seeing the progress that can happen in a child's life because they were loved, safe and secure.

One of our carers, Jo is one of these amazing people who go above and beyond to better the lives of others. QWeekend shares her story

Key Assets Australia deeply honours and celebrates the rich and enduring cultures of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, recognising them as the oldest continuing cultures in the world. We respectfully acknowledge the traditional custodians of the lands and waters where we live and work. We recognise their profound spiritual connection to the land and pay heartfelt respects to Elders past, present, and emerging. We acknowledge the deep trauma, grief, and loss experienced by these communities, both historically and presently, and commit to walking alongside them in support and solidarity.

Key Assets Australia is a non-government, not for profit, non-religious, children, family and community services agency. Our purpose is to achieve positive and lasting outcomes for children, families, and communities.
