Abstract
The foster parents' national movement is a movement that aims to provide service assistance to foster children so that they can successfully participate in the 9-year compulsory basic education program. Measurements made are based on respondents' answers using nominal, ordinal and interval scales. The method used is descriptive explorative and explanatory method, the population of Tangerang residents aged 7-17 years. The sampling technique is purposive stratified random sampling. The data used is in the form of secondary data, namely parents, class wail and existing reports, primary data derived from direct interviews with children. Data collection techniques were carried out using documentation, structured interviews, structured surveys and observations. The results showed that there was no visible relationship between family characteristics, which included age, gender and education level with the level of fulfillment of children's school needs, both between educated people and parents who were not educated at all, as well as between women and men. . For certain needs, children have the same needs with one another. for certain other needs children have different needs from one another for a period of one year. The level of family economic life is quite alarming, in general they work as casual laborers with very low incomes with a number of dependents between 4-6 people. Thus the existence of the National Movement for Foster Parents is necessary, but it has not been able to touch the problems of children and families, both in terms of type, quantity and priority of children's school needs. In a child's life, the family is the closest unit to the child and cannot be separated from one another.
