Welcome to the Foster Care Ombudsman Request for Assistance page. This Request for Assistance form helps you to electronically submit a complaint or a concern to our office.  Please fill out the form to the best of your knowledge.  Leave a response blank if you are unsure or uncomfortable. A member of our team will respond to you as quickly as possible, as we monitor incoming requests every business day.  Your request for assistance is very important to us and we look forward to serving you.

The Foster Care Ombudsman program is located within the West Virginia Department of Health (HR) Office of Inspector General. We receive, investigate, and make recommendations to assist foster children, foster parents, and kinship parents.
