Tusla are urgently trying to recruit new foster carers for the Carlow, Kilkenny and South Tipperary areas. 

Tusla foster carers provide a home for children who are unable to live with their own families, and give them the support they need to thrive. Fostering may be for a few days or weeks, or for many years, and the children range from babies to teenagers. Fostering can be challenging and also highly rewarding. Foster carers come from all walks of life. Many foster carers have their own children. Foster carers can be single, married, in a same-sex relationships, employed, unemployed, and retired. 

Tusla needs carers from varying ethnicities and cultures. Tusla – Child and Family Agency provides the training and support which will enable people to undertake this challenging task.

Please do not hesitate to contact Tusla on 1800 226 771 or e-mail tusla.fostering@tusla.ie if you would like to make an enquiry about becoming a foster carer.

An Online Information Session will take place on the 15^th September 2021 at 10am for anyone who would like to find out more about Fostering.
