  • Adult Foster Care Type - family
The adult foster care service covers the provision of protection, supervision, household services, help with living skills or training and support for safeguarding cash resources. Foster care services are individualized and based on the needs of the person, as identified in the support plan. There are two types of Adult Foster Care:
  • Family Adult Foster Care - In Family Adult Foster Care the license holder lives in the home and is the primary provider of care.
  • Corporate Adult Foster Care - In Corporate Adult Foster Care the license holder does not live in the home and is not the primary provider of care. Trained and hired staff generally provide services.
In Minnesota there is not a service called "group home." When the term "group home" is used, it is usually referencing the corporate adult foster care service. Learn more about this service when paid for under waivers in the Community-Based Services Manual.
