FRANKLIN COUNTY, Ala. (WAFF) - Did you know that adults need foster homes in Alabama too?
We have all heard of caregivers and nursing homes, but what about adult foster homes?
“I supervise foster care and adult protective services and that has increased,” said Leah Yocom.
Yocom works with Franklin county DHR. She said there is an increased need for adult foster homes for adult protective services.
“We have reports of physical abuse, neglect, exploitation for the adults and we investigate that and sometimes people have a physical or mental capacity that they need additional services,” said Yocom.
