Foster parent training and consulting services are available in the Southern California area. Foster parent training is important for both the foster parents and the foster care agencies. Foster parents need to accumulate a certain amount of hours of training per year with relevant classes and our training helps to enrich parents and to give them valuable practical tools to work with inside the home and provide needed hours.

Foster care agencies need to find qualified service providers to deliver training to foster parents. Foster care agencies also need to contract out some specific consulting work to outside contractors and with this we can help as well.

With over 13 years of experience in the field plus MSW, LCSW and DPS (Dropout Prevention Specialist) degrees and certificates, we have the experience and education to deliver quality foster parent training classes and help out in special project consulting.

Besides our standard foster parent training classes, we can customize a class to fit your needs. Just send an email outlining your needs and let us tell you what we can do for you.
