The second season of The Fosters premiered on June 16, 2014 and ended on March 23, 2015. The season consisted of 21 episodes and stars Teri Polo and Sherri Saum as Stef Foster and Lena Adams, an interracial lesbian couple, who foster a girl (Maia Mitchell) and her younger brother (Hayden Byerly) while also trying to juggle raising Latino twin teenagers, (Cierra Ramirez and Jake T. Austin), and Stef's biological son (David Lambert). In this season, Callie finds out that Donald is not her father and looks for her real father. Meanwhile, Mariana connects with her maternal biological family and, after Stef and Lena's wedding and adopting Jude, the parents suffer roadblocks in adopting Callie. Also, Jude questions his sexuality.
Callie visits Robert's house for her required weekend time where she meets up again with Sophia as well as meeting Robert's father. He gives both Callie and Robert new perspectives on each other where he also makes it clear that he disagrees with Robert forcing Callie to live with him. Robert, after a meaningful conversation with Callie, he decides to sign his parental rights to Lena and Stef. Jude goes to the hospital to see Connor despite Mr. Stevens banning him from seeing him, but Jude runs into Mr. Stevens. After he calls Lena, Jude tells her about his and Connor's true relationship, and that Connor came out as gay to his dad. This news prompts Lena to explain to Mr. Stevens that keeping Jude and Connor away from each other will not change his son's sexuality and he can only learn to accept it. Meanwhile, Mariana prepares for the crucial dance-team showdown, but sprains her ankle. Now that her team is short one member, she comes up with a creative way to make up for the lost sixth member. On their way home with Ana, Mariana and Jesus realize Ana has gone into labor. As they try to make it to the hospital, a car slams into the side of their car, causing an accident.
In March 2015, it was announced that Jake T. Austin would be leaving the show. He tweeted: "I'm honored to have been a part of such a groundbreaking series, but I personally want to let you know that my time on the show has come to an end. Thank you for letting me be a part of your family, it's been a pleasure." It was announced three months later that Noah Centineo would replace Austin in the role of Jesus.
