Inside Foster Care: The Role of Licensing Agencies and Social Workers | LaQuisha White

What do social workers really experience on the front lines of child welfare? What misconceptions follow them—and how can we support the men and women who walk alongside vulnerable children every day? And what exactly does a licensing agency do in the foster care journey? In this episode, we sit down with LaQuisha White, Director of Foster Care at WinShape Homes, whose years of experience in social services, mental health, and child welfare offer a grounded and compassionate perspective. LaQuisha helps us unpack what it truly means to be a social worker—the challenges they carry, the unseen burdens they bear, and the essential role they play in helping children and foster families flourish. We also explore the purpose of child placing agencies, how they equip families to be prepared for fostering, and the ongoing support they provide long after a child is placed. Whether you’re already fostering, considering taking the first step, or simply want to better understand the people working tirelessly in this space, this conversation will encourage, inform, and remind you of the power of supporting those who care for kids.
