Tools for Staying Organized with a New Placement

When you’re fostering, there are a lot of people coming in and out of your house.

Then there are the appointments.

The visits.

The phone calls.

The emails.

The court dates.

It’s a lot to keep straight.

That’s why I created two simple tools to make it easier.

Spreadsheet

Foster Contact Tracker

Keep every name and number organized in one place.

Monthly Update Template

A simple template for sending clear updates to your case manager (and looping in everyone else), so you're not scrambling together notes the night before court.

From A Foster Parent

"I didn't realize how much mental energy I was spending trying to keep contacts organized until I didn't have to anymore."
