We’ve heard you, foster parents. We know the challenges of finding available and applicable training. We’re very excited to be able to offer this new program in 2021. Each month we will be offering a new and valuable training that can help in your foster journey. 

Over 90% of the training's we offer are approved by the Indiana Department of Child Services.

Please email our Director, Renae Furnée at R.Furnee@resourcesofhope.org with any questions.

Registrations will be closed at 9:00PM the THURSDAY before the training date. 
If we do not have a minimum of 5 people registered we will need to cancel the training.

We understand how valuble your time is and we apologize for any inconvience this may cause.

We are excited to announce that we are now offering childcare at our trainings!
