Additional workshops.
Heart Galleries of Texas is offering a 3-part caregiver training series, presented over 3 months, to foster parents, adoptive parents, and kinship caregivers on the adoption process. Caregiver trainings provide knowledge, support, and guidance to caregivers to help them explore adoption and what it means for them and their family. We encourage caregivers to attend each session at a date that best works for them as the sessions will cover different topics. All training sessions will be offered on three different dates.
Additionally, Texas Institute for Child and Family Well Being is offering a Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI) training opportunity for caregivers. Certificates of completion will be provided.
