First of all, I want to apologize for taking a long time to answer this question. But I had to make sure that my answer was correct before I would pass it on to you. Here goes: YES, you can foster children under section 8. What's better than that, is that whatever income from fostering the children does not count against your income for the calculation of rent. This is because foster parents are really not supposed to be paid to foster children: they are supposed to use whatever money is given to them by the State for the child's benefit.
