New Articles for November 2012

This month I focused on foster and adoptive parent training classes. I explained the purpose of the classes as well as why it seems to take so long to become a licensed foster parent.

I also am beginning to research the different curriculum that is used around the world to train foster and adoptive parents. What class do you have to take to become a foster parent or adoptive parent in your area?
