Who We Are
FosterWV.org is a project of Mission West Virginia.
We created this site to help people in West Virginia learn about foster care and adoption – and connect with someone who can guide them through the process, no matter where they are in their journey.


Make a Difference
Every part of West Virginia is in great need of foster parents.
Across the state, WV children need safe, stable homes where they can feel supported during a difficult time. Even a short-term placement can make a lasting difference in a child’s life.
Mission West Virginia will guide you through the process, from learning what fostering involves to getting connected, trained, and prepared to welcome a child into your home.
