There is a critical need for licensed foster families who can support vulnerable children in need of placement. Fostering Our Future has created a series of training courses for families, community partners, volunteers, and child welfare professionals to address that gap by providing Biblically-informed and family-centered training content.

Foundations Pre-Service Training

We provide a state-approved, pre-licensing training program required for families to become licensed foster parents in the state of Florida.

Fostering Our Future Academy (FOFA) is a competency-based professional in-service training program for foster families and child welfare professionals.
