Gryph, if it is a private non-profit agency, then the CAN discriminate against people with certain religious beliefs.

Just like a church is allowed to hire a secretary who holds certain religious beliefs that are the same as the church's, an agency with religious beliefs is allowed to hire foster parents who hold certain religious beliefs that are the same as the agency's.

"They can't discriminate..." is a popular line, but only applies if the agency is a state one. If it's private, they can and they do.
