Foster Parent Pre-Service Training
The first step to become a foster parent is to contact our Recruitment Department. We are here to answer your questions about foster parenting. Contact Shawn at 330-818-0444!
YOU can make an impact on a child's life. Our foster parent training consists of learning sessions designed to help you develop skills and tools as you begin to understand how foster children have been affected by their troubled backgrounds.
You learn the importance of working as a team with social workers, schools and counselors, all for the benefit of you and the children you welcome into your home. Our staff and trainers guide you through behavior management, realistic expectations, and the entire foster parent licensure process.
NEW pre-service classes begin June 7, 2022!
