Entering the journey of foster care and adoption can be one of the most daunting decisions a family makes. For better or worse, adoption is a lifetime commitment. Foster Care is a commitment to loving a wounded child. In addition to practical training on the impact of abuse and trauma, families must spiritually prepare themselves for the journey ahead. In this webinar, ministry and organizational leaders will learn:

– how to move beyond James 1:27 into deeper scriptural understanding of how to equip families for parenting children who’ve experienced trauma and abuse.
– how to help families examine their motives and expectations of foster care and adoption through the lens of scripture.
– how to help families consider the impact of foster care and adoption on their lives and families
– see examples of how other ministries and organizations are combining spiritual preparation and state-based foster care training to improve the success of families post-placement
