I'm from Pittsburgh and I go through the county. I initially started out with a private agency. Everything was going so nice. The caseworker was even coming to my home to do the trainings which was AWESOME!!!
However she went on medical leave for about a month and when I called to see if she was back, they informed me that that agency no longer had a foster care dpt. I was infuriated as I was almost finished with my training.
That was what made me switch to the county. I'd say make some calls, get the information that they send to your home, go through the info and if you are still a bit hesitant, go to some of the orientation/info meetings.
Take your time and pick an agency that you will be very comfortable and confident with. You'll be dealing with them closely for a long time!
Good luck.
