Description
Description Foster Parent Opportunity Becoming a foster parent is a meaningful way to open your heart and home to a child in your community. You can play the most important role in a child's life by temporary stability, encouragement, and care during a season of transition. As a foster parent, you are never alone. You are part of a collaborative team dedicated to helping children heal, grow, and thrive. What You’ll Do Create a supportive home environment where children can learn and practice social skills, healthy communication, coping strategies, and everyday life skills tailored to their unique needs. Support children’s well-being by helping coordinate and transporting them to medical, dental, and behavioral health appointments ensuring they receive the care they deserve. Partner in shared parenting, nurturing positive connections by supporting visits and sharing appropriate updates with birth families when permitted, always keeping the child’s best interests at heart. Embrace a proven, trauma-informed approach by implementing the Teaching Family Model (TFM) in your home and participating in ongoing consultation and evaluation to strengthen your skills and confidence. Prepare for success through training, completing 40 hours of pre-service training for licensure, offered in both in-person and virtual formats to fit your schedule. Why It Matters Your willingness to show up consistently can change a child’s story. With guidance, training, and a strong support system behind you, fostering becomes not just a role, but a powerful way to make a lasting difference.
