    This is a terrific agency. They are communicative, patient, friendly, and eager to help you be…read moresuccessful. We've been associated with FOY for a little over a year now, and we've had positive experience after positive experience. They offer flexible schedules for training classes and social events. Often, there's food at these events! You can't beat that. If you're thinking about becoming involved with fostering children - part or full time, advocacy, whatever - consider aligning with Focus On Youth. They are a Christian organization but it's not overt. They emphasize traditional family values and ethical treatment of others. I'll definitely be back.

    From the owner: Focus on Youth was co-founded on February 5, 1992 by Cindy Skinner. The agency was certified by the…read morestate of Ohio in May of 1992. Cindy, having been a protective case worker with Hamilton County DJFS as well as an adoption worker, foster parent, and adoptive parent, was discouraged with the number of youth entering residential treatment. She felt children would do better if foster parents were trained to work with the unique needs of youth in care and educated to remain committed to the placement. Involved in providing professional training to numerous child welfare agencies, including the Ohio Family Care Association, the National Foster Parent Association, various PCSA organizations, and day care centers, Cindy determined it was time to open Focus on Youth, Inc. as an agency committed to safety, stability, and permanency for youth in foster care. Committed to the well-being and treatment of children in Focus on Youth care, mental health services were added to our program in 1995. F

We were ripped off for big money from this place after they lied and cheated us. I asked them for a meeting to discuss this and they refused. This place sucks big time. For an industry that is supposed to be built on love and caring as core values, this place is a total disgrace. Search for someone else to help you.

We work closely with expectant mothers and fathers and with potential adoptive couples and single women or men who are looking to adopt an infant. Our focus is the health of the expectant mother and the baby. We assist the mother in finding good health care and help transport her to her appointments. We are interested in what is going on in her life and try to help in any way we can to make sure she has proper housing and food and that, if she has other children that she is parenting, they are also taken care of and supported. In most cases, when a woman is pregnant and considering adoption, she has lots of other things going on in her life. Our private agency makes sure that she is protected and guided in a way that does not interfere in her privacy. Privacy is a number one factor in our adoption program. We do not show profiles of our couples or our birthmothers online for the world to see. We consider adoption to be a wonderful but private choice and treat the process and the individuals involved with the respect that they deserve. Individuals are our focus. We encourage all of our clients to design their own adoption and tell us what makes them feel comfortable. After all, it is not our adoption, but it belongs to the expectant mom and the adoption family. If they want a closed or open adoption, it is their choice...

She had appointments and procedures scheduled every day for a week, and being able to stay so near the hospital was great! I was blown away with RMH! They have thought of and provided everything a family could need while away from home whether for a short term or a long term stay. The house can serve over 170 families, is clean and inviting, and has the happiest staff around. We were met with smiles and encouragement at every turn. The rooms are well outfitted and in good repair. There are activities throughout the day for both parents and children. We used the arts and crafts room, the toy room, the indoor playground, the outdoor playground, the exercise room, the library, and the laundry area. My granddaughter loved the therapy dogs that came to visit. We were served lunch and dinner each day and breads and cereals for breakfast. There was a large family kitchen area that was fully stocked if you wanted to cook your own meal. All of this was provided at no cost to the family. After experiencing this place with my family, I can tell you that I will be an avid supporter of RMH and the services provided to families with children needing medical attention. This is truly love in action.
