Foster carers can make a lasting impact on a young life.
Berry Street needs foster carers now more than ever.
Join its dedicated team committed to nurturing and empowering children and young people on their unique journeys.
As a Berry Street foster carer, you’ll support local children and young people at a crucial moment in their life.
As one of Victoria’s largest providers of out-of-home care, Berry Street provides children and young people who have experienced trauma with a safe and secure place to live.
For more than 145 years, the organisation has supported children and young people in Victoria at whatever point in their journey that they need help.
“Childhood is a journey, but not every child has the same opportunities, which is why we need foster carers to play an empowering role in a child’s or young person’s life,” Melissa Robertson, Berry Street’s foster care recruitment, assessment, and training team leader said.
“We are encouraging people to start their foster care journey – you never know where it will take you.
“The team and I will be there to support you every step of the way, as you learn and grow in your new caring role.”
Berry Street welcomes foster carers from diverse backgrounds, cultures, and experiences.
