Many advocacy groups are pushing for higher compensation, better training, and improved mental health support for foster and adoptive families and across Canada.

NGOs and Advocacy Organizations:

• Organizations like Foster Parents’ Association of British Columbia (FPABC), Foster Families Ontario, and Canadian Foster Families Association (CFFA) advocate for better financial support and systemic reforms to improve the foster care system.

• Child advocacy groups like the Canadian Coalition for Children’s Rights also work to highlight the needs of vulnerable children in foster care, particularly those with disabilities or special needs.
