In order to begin Foundations Training you must have completed Encounter,
FaithBridge's 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 virtually, and one-on-one personalized training held in
the foster home. Once you complete the virtual portion of the training, 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.
