Children of every age are a part of the foster care system in Arizona. From newborn babies to young adults, Helen’s provides for foster families. Specifically, Helen’s helps children who have a case with the Department of Child Safety and who have been placed in a licensed foster home or group home. Their caregiver must bring Notice to Provider paperwork to each appointment.

Children in Foster Care
Children in Unlicensed Kinship Care
In many cases, children will find themselves removed from their parent’s home and placed with another family member. If a child is no longer being cared for by their parents but do not have a case with the Department of Child Safety they may receive services from HHC. In order to qualify, the kinship caregiver must bring Notice to Provider or connect with a partnering kinship program and receive a Kinship Number to use at HHC. We also serve families that have guardianship issued from the courts.
Others
Helen’s Hope Chest also provides one outfit, books, and gifts for biological and adopted children if the family has a current foster placement (birth certificates required).
