Angels Collaborations

Working with Others to Improve Foster Care

While Angels is unique in specifically addressing the attachment and bonding needs of foster infants and toddlers, we collaborate with organizations and individuals who have related interests.

Angels is currently working with the following partners:

Nancy Haller, Ph.D., with Applied Psychometrics in San Diego, CA, evaluates prospective parents with the MMPI-2 screening tool and prepares in-depth assessments of all applicants. Also compares Angels MMPI scores with that of proven foster families to establish a psychological profile for a healthy foster family.

Santa Barbara County Child Welfare Services recognizes Angels as a “non-treatment” Foster Agency and provides referrals of dependent children under the age of 3 in need of foster families under the terms of an annually renewed contract. County social workers oversee cases and make court recommendations on whether to return children to their families or place them for adoption. The assigned Angels social worker works closely with the assigned county worker to ensure the best interests of the child are always met. County social workers collaborate with Angels in child placements, reunification, termination of parental rights, and adoption referrals. The county also provides all Angels parents with a $415 per month food and clothing stipend.

Please contact us if you see an opportunity for collaboration.
