It is totally possible. I am a single mom and I know that my agency is open to ALL families, single, same sex, traditional...it doesn't matter, they seek out loving, safe, homes for the kiddos and are not held back by some arbitrary standard that families should look a certain way.
...and who knows, by the time you are ready maybe you will have a wife or partner to walk the journey with you.

Hi There. I know this a somewhat older post, but I wanted you to know it can be done, although you will be held to a more stringent standard (my licensors and the state requested additional references on 2 occasions, they stopped asking when I handed them a list of over 20)
At the time, I was only 23 too. I was told once that I was the youngest single male foster parent in the country....
They would, however, only license me for boys, but I was licensed for up to 2 boys, ages 5-18. They eventually asked If I was willing to accept my then foster son's bio-sister, and they would update my license. I chose not to because of previous issues with foster parents and allegations. Anyway, hope that helps, although you are probably much further along now.
So, did you ever get your license?
