Single-family Home: The term "foster care" is used to include care in any kind of facility, individual family, boarding home, adoptive home, group home, or children's institution. It is useful to think of adoption as separate from other kinds of foster family care, because adoption is a permanent substitute. Foster care, on the other hand, whether in the setting of an individual family home, in a group home, or in an institution, is never really permanent. The unsettling threat of change, or the promise of change, is always present. It must always be seen as a kind of interim care, awaiting the time when the problem that made placement necessary may be resolved and the child may return to his own home, or move on to a new "own" home on a permanent basis.
