Foster Orientation

Thank you for your interest in fostering with Atlanta Humane! In order to begin fostering, you need to attend a live virtual foster orientation or watch the pre-recorded version below. The live version is available once a month and is a great opportunity for you to ask specific questions of our team. The pre-recorded version covers the same information as the live version but also includes a mandatory quiz. Once you submit your responses, our team will reach out to you about the next steps to begin fostering. Please reach out to [email protected] if you have any questions.

Pre-recorded Foster Orientation

Update 7/6/23: Recently, Atlanta Humane has been working on a plan to better serve the people and pets of the North Fulton community. With the sale and closure of our property on Mansell Road in Alpharetta having concluded, we wanted to reassure folks interested in becoming foster parents that we will still have a presence in North Fulton for foster activity.

We are excited to announce that we have finalized acquiring a temporary North Fulton Foster Hub! This will be the space in which we will continue to provide support and services to foster parents who cannot go to the Atlanta shelter. It’s only one exit up on GA-400 North from our former property on Mansell Road.

The prerecorded new foster orientation video will be updated in the future to reflect the changes within the organization, but please note that we are no longer utilizing the former shelter at 1565 Mansell Road. More details about the North Fulton Foster Hub will be provided after you complete the process to become a new foster parent!
