Text of letter sent to foster care provider networks week of Jan. 25, 2010...

 

Dear friends:

 

As you may be aware, Hamilton County Job and Family Services will now be working with private foster care agencies to place children in agency care. Our foster families will be asked to transition to the private or public agency of their choice.
 
In an effort to help them find the agency that best fits them, we have planned a Provider Forum for Thursday, Feb. 4 and Friday, Feb. 5 here at HCJFS, 222. E. Central Pkwy. in downtown Cincinnati. This will offer our foster families the opportunity to learn more about you and your program, and provide them with information to assist their decision-making process.
 
The forum will be held from 4:30 - 6:30 PM on Feb. 4 and from 11:30 AM - 1:30 PM on Feb. 5. You may arrive by 4:00 PM on Wednesday to set up. Tables will be provided.
 
If you plan to attend, please RSVP no later than Monday, Feb. 1. You can reach me by phone at (513) 946-2336 or by email at cummij02@jfs.hamilton-co.org.
 
We look forward to seeing you next week.
