Hello Caregivers,

I would like to welcome you to me Foster & Kinship Care Education Training Course. I am thrilled that you are joining me on the journey into challenges and barriers that many caregivers face that impact the well-being for foster children. My goal is to arouse awareness in you that will invoke healthy and productive changes in your lives as well as those children under your care. This training course forces introspection into your own habits that may need to be reexamined and changed, as foster parents and biological parents. Other topics explored will be behavior management, General Education, Parent Rights and Special Education, school and community resources.

As we. progress through the training course we will examine the child development, anger management, necessary consistency and follow through for children, children self esteem and well being.

In addition there will be discussions on cultural diversity/sensitivity, parent self care, trauma, attachment and teaching youth to be responsible.

Our last discussions will explore, tips for money management and sexual exploited children.,

As you can see, this training course will bring you on quite a journey to address numerous foster parent care issues that impact all involved.

Again welcome to the training course and it is my hope that we both learn together about things that matter in our lives - our children.

Peggy Monroe, Ed.D
