Foster Midland exists to support and encourage foster parents of Midland County and the surrounding area. We collaborate with all agencies and individuals involved in foster care to create a positive community where everyone has an opportunity to learn, grow, and care together. We do this through regular meetings, communication, and training.
What:
Meetings will start with a shared meal and introduction. Kids are welcome to come and eat, and then go downstairs with approved oversight, to play.
Each meeting will include 30 minutes for a meal and congregating together, then 15 minutes of introduction and communication updates followed by a roughly 30-minute training session that should count toward required 6 hours of education for licensed homes. After this, 20 minutes should be allowed for questions and answers, and some flexible time.
Where:
200 Grove St, Midland, MI 48640
In the Caregiving Network building, (the"old grove church")
When:
2nd Tuesday of the month, 5:30-7:00pm.
The goals of this meeting are to:
-Provide a safe, comfortable community for anyone connected to the foster/adoption community
-Bring together public and private agencies for consistent care and communication
-Overcome boundaries to coming such as mealtime and childcare
-Provide required training
-Provide a resource for interested parties to come and understand how they can help, support, and become licensed
