simply curious

My agency doesnt get many babies... I started thinking (never a good thing LOL) since I no longer work I would love to take care of infants. Drug babies, medically fragile infants etc....
how do I go about finding an agency/program that would do that? I am not interested in adopting at this point, simply caring for the infants.
this is simply a random idea that I am thinking about, but not sure where to learn more about it.

11 foster kids in my first year as a foster parent



And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.
But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.

Call DCFS or the agency you are working with and tell them what you are interested in doing and they can direct you to any special training classes you may need or that may be helpful.
