WEBI-CONFERENCE: Honoring the Birth Parent

Join us to explore how foster families and birth families can best work together for the benefit of children. We are on Zoom and we will have plenty of interaction, door prizes and fun to offer.

If you can’t stay the whole day, participants are welcome to join for selected workshops. Foster parents receive training credit for participating. FLYER
