1 2011 FOSTER PARENT RECRUITMENT AND RETENTION SURVEY Agency Name: The Center for Support of Families (CSF) Title of Program: Diligent Recruitment Grant Ask to speak to the foster parent listed. Hello. My name is and I am calling on behalf of the Department of Human Services. I m with an organization called the Center for Support of Families and we are working with the DHS to collect some information about fostering children with special needs. You were recommended by the agency as an experienced foster parent, and I am wondering if you would be willing answer some survey questions with me? The purpose of our questions is to get some information that will help use develop services and tools that will help support foster parents like you to care for children with special needs. The survey should take about minutes. Would that be ok? If this is not a good time for you, could we make an appointment for a better time when I could call you back? Open GRITS Calendar and make an appointment, no later than May 12 (save under the Staff Survey Calendar). Thank you. We really appreciate your time and help. Let s get started!
