FOSTER PARENT ORIENTATION:

If you are interested in learning more about foster care, please call the following:


FOSTER PARENT TRAINING:

ATTENTION FOSTER PARENTS! As you know, 12 hours per year of foster parent training are required to maintain your certification. To help with this, Nepenthean Homes is now offering our 21-DVD Foster Parent College training set. These videos are available for viewing in-house at our Sacramento and El Sobrante offices ONLY--we cannot offer home check-out. You may call the offices to schedule a time to view the videos. Each DVD is 30 to 45 minutes in length. Viewing only gives you one hour training credit; viewing plus taking the test gives you two hours training credit. For more information and to schedule your viewing time, please call the Sacramento office (916) 993-7776 or the El Sobrante Office (510) 222-2666.

This is a great way to get your training hours easily. Even if you have already completed your training requirement, you may get extra hours or supplement your training knowledge in a particular area. Foster families who are in the orientation process will also find this a valuable way to get information about foster parenting.
