Foster Care Information Sessions and Trainings

Foster Care Information Sessions and Trainings

We have currently suspended all in-person information sessions to safeguard the health and well-being of our communities. To find out more about becoming a foster parent, you can attend a virtual information meeting, including our pre-recorded webinar listed below.

Information Sessions

Information sessions cover the basics of becoming a foster parent in Minnesota. Topics include who is eligible to become a foster care provider, how to become licensed, the children in foster care, foster parenting options and resources available to foster parents.

Informational Webinars on How to Become a Foster Parent

Our webinar covers the same basics as a live information session and is available to view on demand, so it fits with your schedule.
