Welcome to the Idaho Resource Family Portal

Access licensing information, child placement details, helpful resources, forms, and support tools in one central location.

The Portal gives you access to information about your license and the children you are caring for in your home. It also gives you a central location to find links to national websites, Idaho resources, information related to foster children from special populations, accessing services in the community, Frequently Asked Questions, and more.

While a child is placed in your home, you will find information on this website that will help you care for the child, including the child’s personal information, education history, medical and mental health information, appointments, diagnoses, medications, allergies, and details related to the child protection case.
