The Linn-Jones Foster Care Review Boards (FCRB) needs community members to volunteer one Wednesday a month to assist in monthly reviews of actions taken, services offered, and current status of cases in which children are in foster care or under supervision of the state. They consider input from parents, social workers, and others involved in caring for the child before developing recommendations to submit to the court. A full and diverse Board ensures the court is provided with well-thought-out solutions that reflect the best interests of the child.
If you are interested in making a difference in the life of a child and believe you have the time and compassion to give, please don’t hesitate to contact Program Coordinator Linda Yates at (515) 322-7283 or email her at linda.yates@hhs.iowa.gov.
