==Need for the Document==
*A foster child is a minor child who has been taken into state custody and placed with a state-licensed adult, who cares for the child in place of their parent or guardian. Children often enter the foster care system as a result of an unsafe or unstable home environment, usually due to abuse or neglect.
 
 
==Information which might help==
*At first glance foster care and adoption may look very similar as in both the cases you are bringing the child home and nurturing him/her, but unlike adoption foster parents don't have permanency and parental rights over their foster kid. Here a foster child will be constantly in touch with his/her parents.
 
 
==Other uses of the Document/Certificate==
Please explain what are other uses of obtaining this document/certificate.
