Foster Parent Training Program

With generous, ongoing support from The Helen K. and Arthur E. Johnson Foundation, the Children's Law Center hosts Foster Parent Training Sessions around the state to educate foster parents about their legal rights including:

• How to best resolve a case
• How a permanent home can be achieved for their foster child
• What the law mandates for foster children
• How to access public benefits, such as adoption assistance, childcare and therapy
• How to intervene in a case
• Foster parents’ legal rights in the handling of investigations and complaints
• How to oppose or stop the imminent removal of their foster child from their home
• How to oppose or stop the imminent removal of their foster child from their home
• Liability concerns

We urge foster parents to call prior to a decision being made when options for assistance are limited. We are committed to helping these families by providing resources and, when necessary, legal representation in partnership with volunteer attorneys. Such a commitment would not be possible without the generous support of the Helen K. and Arthur E. Johnson Foundation.
