Want to Foster or Adopt? Start With This Free Virtual Class
May 8 @ 6:00 pm - July 10 @ 9:00 pm

Nearly 6,000 Kansas children and teens need foster families to open their hearts and homes. It only takes ONE caring adult to change a child’s life. How about you?
One of the first and most important steps to become a licensed foster or adoptive parent is to complete MAPP Foundations training (Model Approach to Partnerships in Parenting). This class prepares you to care for a child who has experienced trauma and helps you build many other skills in your journey to become a foster or adoptive parent. MAPP also aids you in determining if fostering or adopting is right for you.
KVC Kansas offers this course at no cost to you. Classes will be held virtually from 6-9pm every Wednesday. Class starts May 8, 2024 and ends July 10, 2024. Class size is limited so reach out to us today!
Trainings can fill quickly so please reach out soon if you’re interested. If this option does not work for your family but you are interested, please reach out as we have new classes forming all the time!
