I. SECTION 2 - PAGE It - PLAINDE ALER - WEDNESDAY, JUNE 27,1184 Foster homes sought for disabled adults Hie Jayne Shover Easter Seal Rehabilitation Center of Elgin is expanding its Specialized Home Placement program to provide foster home care for disabled adults, in addition to the children the program now serves. The program's goal is to place eight adults in foster homes in the next year. These adults may have cerebral palsy, epilepsy, be mentally retarded or have other disabling problems. Most of those who will be placed in foster care now reside in in­ stitutions. Or they may now reside with immediate family members or relatives, but because of changing cir­ cumstances such as illness, advancing age or death, may need another home. The Specialized Home Placement program serves residents of Kane, Kendall, Lake, McHenry and northwest Cook Counties. Hie center is seekng potential foster parents in those areas who are willing to be licensed by the state to care for disabled adults and children. The qualifications to be a foster parent are: at least 21 years of ae, in good physical and emotional health, able to provide adequate space, financially stable, and genuinely willing to understand and lovingly care for children or adults with special needs. A foster parent may be single or married, with or without children. Each foster home is licensed by the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services through the Jayne Shover Easter Seal Center. A home study is conducted, usually through three or four home visits with the potential foster parent(s). Discussed will be attitude toward foster paren­ ting, philosophies of child rearing, the special needs of developmental^ disabled adults and children and the effect on the natural children in the home. References are checked and sometimes employers are contacted. Before actual placement occurs, several visits are made by the disabled child or adult to the foster hodie, to get acquainted with each other. Persons interested in becoming a foster parent can contact the Jayne Shover Easter Seal Center at (312) 742-3264. BULL VALLEY BEEF 50 lb. Units *90°° Includes: 18 fts. Ground Beef, 17 Iks.
