The popularity of the foster care service in Ukraine is rapidly growing. Over the past year and a half, the number of foster families has exceeded 500, indicating a positive trend in the development of this field. In 2024, approximately 1,019 children were placed under the care of foster educators, allowing them to receive proper care in a cozy family environment.

The most active regions in implementing the foster care service are Kharkiv, Cherkasy, and Kirovohrad, while Volyn and Transcarpathia require more attention.
