Q. What supports are available to foster families?
KVC is committed to every foster parent’s success and provides personalized support to your family. We encourage our foster parents to develop a support system around them and work with extended family, faith communities, employers, and friends to develop a network of care around the family, as any parent would. KVC provides ongoing training opportunities to address specific behavioral needs, working with birth families, and navigating the child welfare system. Additionally, we offer access to a clothing closet, school supplies, holiday gifts and ongoing supports.

Q. Besides books, what else am I able to get with my library card?
People are always surprised when they learn that they can use their Mid-Continent Public Library card to download eBooks and eAudiobooks for both adults and children, download up to five songs per week to keep, learn a language, get free online tutoring and take free online courses in a variety of professional and personal development subjects. You can also read the Kansas City Star and Kansas City BusinessJournal for free and access important information on ConsumerReports.com before a big purchase. This is just the tip of the iceberg of what you can access with your library card.
