This workshop focuses on the critical role of fathers in foster care. Research shows that father involvement improves children’s development, academics, and behavior. However, child welfare systems often struggle to engage fathers.

This training equips foster care workers with tools to address biases, engage fathers, and involve them in case planning, ultimately strengthening families and improving outcomes.

Mandated reporters are an essential part of the child protection system because they have an enhanced capacity, through their expertise and direct contact with children, to identify suspected child abuse and neglect. Reports made by mandated reporters are confirmed at nearly double the rate of those made by non-mandated reporters.
