At Necco, we understand you may have questions about what it's really like to be a foster parent and if you will have contact with your foster child's biological family. Amy Kennedy-Rickman, Foster Care Liaison, answers that we promote contact as much as possible with the biological family when reunification is the goal. Sometimes contact is appropriate and sometimes it is not. Many biological parents are working to get their kids back so will do everything possible to help them achieve that.
