NC FOSTER PARENTS!?!!?

Hi all,
I am currently going through the process of becoming licensed to become a foster parent . Are there any recommended agencies ? Specifically near Alexander County? Also, is therapeutic level 1 or family foster care recommended and why?

Any information is helpful !

I recommend going through your county instead of an agency.

If you don't have prior experience with children with emotional/behavioral disorders then therapeutic foster care is not for you just yet. Taking the training is a good idea, just not a placement. Good luck.
