Mission Statement
Our Mission The Bair Foundation will provide quality care and services dedicated to the treatment, restoration and empowerment of children, youth and families. The Vision of the Bair Foundation is to be the most sought after social services organization for children, youth and families in North America.
Description
Since 1967, The Bair Foundation has been committed to building strong children, strong families and strong communities. Therapeutic Foster Care, also called Treatment Foster Care, involves placement of children and teens with families who have been specially trained to care for children with certain medical or behavioral needs. By matching the individualized needs of each child with the strengths of our foster families, we are able to make successful placements with minimal moves. Trained to implement Bair’s treatment model, Structured Intervention Treatment Foster Care (SITFC(r)), foster families are able to help children who have been traumatized, through commitment, sensitivity and responsiveness and by creating a sense of safety and security while looking beyond the behaviors.
