Preparing Children For Permanency
September 9, 2023 @ 10:30 am - 12:00 pm EDT
Preparing Children for Permanency equips foster/adoptive parents with strategies to prepare children for permanency. It offers insight on the thoughts and emotional reactions that a child transitioning to permanency may experience. It also explores ways to help children understand and express their emotions during this time of transition.
After completing this training, participants will be able to:
- Identify what emotions children in transition may be experiencing as explained by the 3-5-7 model.
- Utilize strategies to help children understand their feelings and emotions in their transition to permanency.
ASK-VIP trainings are expressly designed to meet the needs of foster and adoptive parents. Skilled trainers who have lived experiences with fostering and adoption provide these trainings in a virtual group setting. There is 1.5 hours of ongoing, elective foster parent training credit available for Kentucky’s foster parents.
