Foster and adoptive homes needed for Potawatomi children nationwide

Citizen Potawatomi Nation is an economically and culturally thriving tribe. Despite our successes, some Potawatomi children are involved with the child welfare system due to abuse and neglect.

FireLodge Children & Family Services is committed to protecting children and ensuring they are connected to their family and heritage. Any time a Native American child is placed out of their parents’ home and into custody, states are legally required to provide notice to the child’s tribe. Our department proudly intervenes nationwide on every case with a Potawatomi child to ensure their cultural, physical and emotional needs are being met.
