MOFAS event on Foster/Adoptive/Kinship Care

FASD Intervention's avatarFASD Interventions Across the Lifespan

MOFAS

In light of our last post on “ReMoved,” a film about foster care, we would like to share with you a foster care related event hosted by MOFAS.

On April 29, 2014, MOFAS will host “Creating Permanency for Foster and Kinship Families“, an event for parents, caregivers, and professionals. The event will discuss the challenges facing families caring for a child with difficult behaviours and offer techniques to develop solutions. For more information and contact info, see the link above.

Unfortunately, this is not an online event and is only offered in Minneapolis, so for those of you in the Minneapolis area: Enjoy!
