Ontario, Canada – Johnson Adult Foster Care continues to demonstrate its commitment to quality and safety by applying child foster care standards to all adult foster care placements.

While Ontario mandates licensing and standards for agencies providing foster care for children, there are currently no province-wide mandatory standards for adult foster care. Despite this gap, Johnson Adult Foster Care has chosen to hold its adult foster homes to the same rigorous approval processes used for child placements.

Each foster home must meet established minimum standards of health, safety, and quality. All adults placed in care are individually screened, and caregivers are required to complete vulnerable person police checks. In addition, primary care providers undergo intensive training prior to placement and participate in ongoing professional development.

This approach ensures adults in foster care receive consistent, reliable, and high-quality support in safe, family-based environments.
