Okanagan Foster Parents Association provides education and support for Foster Parents of the Okanagan, Shuswap and Similkameen.

We believe
- Foster Parents are a key component of the Family Care Home system in British Columbia
- Foster Parents need a variety of support services and educational opportunities in order to meet the many needs of Children in Care.
- services for Foster Families need to be consumer-driven, community based, and honour cultural diversity
