Family Service of Rhode Island has a waiting list of children needing loving homes. These boys and girls may have been removed from their families due to physical abuse, parent drug and alcohol abuse, neglect or other issues.

To help find these youngsters homes, Family Service of Rhode Island is holding an information open house for anyone interested in becoming a foster parent on Wednesday, April 23, 5 to 7 p.m. in the agency’s offices at 134 Thurbers Avenue, Providence, moments off Route 95.
