South Dakota Department of Social Services
From the SD DSS Foster Site:
Strong families are South Dakota’s foundation and our future. They serve as the primary source of love, identity, self-esteem and support in communities throughout the state and the country.
South Dakotans who provide foster parenting are making a difference in the lives of children and their birth families. The Department of Social Services ensures the safety, permanency and well-being of the children in our state.
Foster parenting promotes the healing process by offering a stable and secure environment until a child can return home or establish an alternative lifelong relationship with a caring adult, through adoption or other permanent situation.
