SUPPORT TEAM TRAINING

Support Team Training is for P 1.27 families and their Support Teams, providing valuable information on how to effectively support friends and family as they care for foster and adopted children; the impact on the birth children in their home; and the impact on a new child entering the family.

The focus is on the Christian practices of prayer, understanding the situation, developing and maintaining relationships, and encouraging one another.

Each family is asked to bring a minimum of four (4) additional friends or family team members.

CPR and FIRST AID

All foster and adoptive parents must be certified in CPR and First Aid. Project 1.27 does provide this training at a reduced cost — please note that sessions are limited. Families are welcome to seek alternative sources of training. Training must include skills for infants and children.
