teenagers awaiting their re
turn to the community.
The majority of Villa St.
Rose students are returned
to their own communities
where family case work and
th erap y by Villa social
workers has enabled relatives
to provide a positive home
environment for the teen
ager. But a growing number
of disrupted families are per
manently incapable of offer
ing satisfactory homes to
their girls. It is for these
teens that Villa is seeking
foster homes.
Almost always the girls
are high school students pre
pared by Villa's school for
enrollm ent in the usual
classes.
Families willing to share
their lives with homeless
teenage girls are certified for
foster care by Villa St. Rose
Supportive case work is reg
ularly provided the girl and
foster family by Villa's after
care worker, Terry Green.
Prospective foster families
can phone Terry Green at
