[quote=Anonymous]My husband and I have been ttc 15 months with no luck.  We're moving forward with progressing to an RE for further care and help.  In the mean time, we've decided to take the step to become foster parents.  While our information session isn't for another few weeks to get the process started, we're already talking extensively about ages, problems that may arise, etc.

We technically reside in Fairfax County, but live on the border with Alexandria County.  Do you need to attend and get your license through your residing county or can you work through other counties? It'd still even be closer for us to complete training, etc through Arlington County than it would be for us to drive all the way out to Fairfax.  We are willing to do the drive, but I was just wondering if it can be done cross-county in large metro areas such as the DC metro.  How do placements work? Are they county specific or just location specific? We want to be able to have as much opportunity as we can to provide for children in need in our selected age range. I imagine the need for foster families is large in this area.

Thanks for any tips or help you can provide! [/quote]
