Everything You Wanted to Know About Foster Parenting But Were Afraid to Ask
Whether you just finished your PS-MAPP course or have been a foster parent for years, questions about the nitty, gritty aspects of foster parenting always arise. Whether it is questions about navigating the system, licensing rules and regulations, what steps to take if you find yourself facing an allegation of abuse or questions about working with birth parents, having answers can extend placements and maintain calm in your home. This course focuses on the answers to these types of questions by providing up-to-date information through a trauma lens while providing participants with a deeper understanding of the reason behind the rules, everyday resources and ways to protect yourself and your home. Come with questions, leave with answers.
