Who Should Apply?
Inwood House is looking for foster parents who live in Harlem, East
Harlem, Jamaica/Hollis, The Rockaways, Queens Village and Woodhaven,
are between the ages of 30 and 60, are in good health, have experience
in raising children from infancy through the teen years, and are interested
in helping a teen mother make a better life for herself and her baby.

How Does the Program Work?
For every day that a young mother and child are in a foster home,
the foster parent is paid a set rate on a monthly basis to meet their
needs such as food, transportation, personal care items, recreation,
and an allowance. The teen mother is provided a clothing allowance
for herself and her baby. Inwood House pays all medical and dental
expenses for mother and child and provides support services, such
as family day care, a job developer, and a scholarship fund to ensure
the teen mother attends school or vocational training. Inwood House
provides foster parents special training and works in partnership
with them to best meet the needs of the teen and her child. If you
are interested in applying, please call April L. Phillips at 718-291-6707
