Join us for our April foster parent meeting! Foster Parent meetings are designed to be a time of training, connecting with other Focus on Youth foster parents, and sharing a meal together.
This training guide is designed to equip foster parents with the knowledge and tools necessary to recognize and support children who have experienced sexual abuse. Through understanding the signs, both physical and behavioral, foster parents will learn how to identify potential trauma and respond appropriately. The training emphasizes the importance of creating a safe, supportive environment, recognizing trauma responses, and collaborating with professionals. Additionally, foster parents will gain insight into mandatory reporting responsibilities, the emotional impact of caregiving, and strategies for self-care. Using real-life case scenarios, participants will engage in discussions to better understand how to support children in their care, providing a comprehensive approach to healing and recovery.
