Critical Need for Foster Homes in Highline Area

Critical Need for Foster Homes in Highline Area | eHighlights

Burien, White Center, and the surrounding neighborhoods are in desperate need of foster homes. Children from this area are being transferred to Spokane, Yakima, and other communities as a result of the lack of homes here. On average, King County transfers 30 children per week to other communities - a significant number of these children should be students at Highline Public Schools. Are you able to help?

Foster Parent Liasion/Recruiter Marilynn Burton offers an informal, free class at the Burien Community Center the second Wednesday of every month from 5:00 - 8:00 p.m. for anyone interested in learning more. Her contact information follows:
