Oregon's New Plan to End Hotel Housing for Foster Kids
Update: 2025-12-08
Description
Oregons new approach to foster care: paying providers to buy or build homes for children, aiming to offer more stability and move them from temporary hotel rooms into structured, home-like environments. The first two contracts, with Youth Unlimited Incorporated and Vineyard Family Incorporated, have raised concerns due to their high startup costs. While this plan offers hope for some children, lawmakers question its long-term effectiveness and ability to solve the broader issue of finding appropriate homes for all children with complex needs.
