National Resource Center for Youth Services: Resource Family Training & Support

NRCYS

Support Groups for Region 2

Support Network Groups are designed to assist resource parents with in-service training, community resource information, peer support, and communication with DHS. Attending on a regular basis is not only a great way to get the emotional and practical support you need to succeed, it's a great way to stay on top of the training requirements you need to fulfill. Some groups serve dinner or snacks; all provide child care with your RSVP. Please contact the facilitator to find out about the topic or confirm your attendance.

This CPR training will equip foster and adoptive parents with vital, life-saving skills to respond effectively in emergency situations. Participants will learn how to recognize signs of distress, perform CPR, and take immediate action to protect the children in their care. The session is designed to be practical, interactive, and confidence-building, ensuring parents feel prepared to handle real-life situations at home or in the community.
