Foster Care & Foster Care Adoption Info Meeting
Event Details
Bethany Christian Services believes that every child deserves a loving home, and your family can help be a part of that important mission! We’ve found that most people considering foster care have some big questions running through their mind, like:
Who will support me?
What does the ideal foster parent look like?
There may not be just one right way to be a foster family, but there are certain factors that can help every family become stronger for the children in their care. In particular, there are 5 Protective Factors that can help guide your readiness and planning to be become a foster parent at Bethany. These factors include parental resilience, social connections, knowledge of parenting & child development, concrete support in times of need, and social & emotional competence of children.
Feeling ready to take that first step and learn even more? Attend our Foster Care & Foster Care Adoption Orientation meeting by registering here. During this meeting, we'll describe the current need for foster families in our community, what to expect in terms of caring for children in care, and the foster home licensing process. The meeting will also discuss and introduce foster care adoption.
We hope to see you there! If this scheduled time doesn't work for you, email Kayla Lanshe at klanshe@bethany.org or call 616-210-5630 to schedule a personal Orientation.
