How do Foster Parents contribute to children’s recovery from trauma?

In this exciting online conference, we will explore how foster parents and fellow professionals understand the concept of recovery and the important part they all play in the journey for children in foster families. We will explore this topic from a range of perspectives including research, practice, theory, and foster parent’s own experiences. We will also have a round table discussion to generate ideas and strategies to help improve outcomes for the children we care for.
