May 21 @ 10:00 am
Event Navigation
Hundreds of children with developmental disabilities are unnecessarily growing up in congregate care settings because of the insufficient availability of alternate family homes in both the child welfare and developmental disabilities systems. This forum will provide an opportunity for agencies across systems and across counties to share their family recruitment ideas.
A panel of alternate family recruitment professionals from Access Services, CONCERN4Kids, Diakon Adoption and Foster Care, EveryChild, TX Inc., and Spectrum Community Services, as well as webinar attendees, will share effective strategies for securing successful family foster homes and Life Sharing homes for children with developmental disabilities.
