In order to begin Foundations Training, you must have completed Encounter
FaithBridge Orientation. All foster parents are required to complete
Foundations Training in order to obtain their foster care license through
FaithBridge. The training includes 6 in-person training sessions. The
6-sessions are divided into two different types of training environments:
classroom training held at a local church and one-on-one personalized training
held in the foster home. Once you complete the classroom portion of the
training at a local church, a FaithBridge staff member will schedule the
remaining individualized training sessions in your home. FaithBridge
Foundations Training is designed to prepare foster parent applicants for the
physical, emotional and spiritual demands of caring for foster children. The
training covers important topics while helping families examine their hearts to
determine if they are called to foster.
