Jess Dannhauser, commissioner of the Administration for Children's Services, says nearly everyone can get involved.

"All you need is a loving and a stable home," said Dannhauser. "If you can really prioritize children and make sure that you're providing them a safety and care and love that you need, than anybody can be a foster parent."
