These are moments we may take for granted. But for children in Iowa’s foster care system, having an adult to care about the little things makes a big difference. We serve families in 30 western Iowa counties, including major cities like Council Bluffs, Sioux City, Storm Lake, and surrounding areas. Become a foster parent through LSI Foster Care and Adoption and make a difference for Iowa children.
Meet Iowa Kids
There are hundreds of children in Iowa in need of happy, permanent homes. The children you’re about to meet represent just a few of them. Each of the children featured here is legally eligible for adoption, and their DHS caseworker is actively seeking a permanent adoptive home. Families who are interested in adoption must be current licensed foster families (with an approved homestudy) or approved adoptive families.
