SUMMARY:Rest Conference 2023
DESCRIPTION:Are you a parent who has started to feel the effects of caring for children from hard places and sense you are inching towards burnout? This work is often taxing and without breaks. We know the answer to worry is to “trust God.” But what does that actually look like when we’re in the trenches of caring for others? At Fostering Hope\, we want to create opportunities for foster/adopt and kinship families to feel renewed\, encouraged and confident in their calling to parent the children entrusted to their care. On October 6\, 2023\, we are hosting– REST\, a conference designed to encourage foster and adopt families in body\, mind and spirit. The theme of this conference is\, “Soul Care” and sessions will be led by Lee Lewis\, who is the pastor of soul care at Radiant Church in Round Rock. It will be a time of inspiration\, encouragement and rest!

SUMMARY:Beyond Hair
DESCRIPTION:Many families created through foster care and adoption are transracial. As parents and caregivers\, we can honor and understand what makes our children who they are – their culture\, their family\, and their hair and skin. While our children’s hair texture and skincare are only part of what makes them who they are\, and we must go beyond appreciating these characteristics\, caring for our child’s hair and skin is an important and tangible way to celebrate what makes our child special. Whether you are a seasoned parent who just needs a few tips or are ready for your first step in engaging your child’s cultural history\, we welcome your experience and questions. Join us for a day of learning from experts with lived experience in the field of transracial relationships.\n\nThis training is held in partnership with Change1. Cortney Jones\, along with a seasoned hair stylist will walk caregivers through practical strategies\, wisdom\, and insight to best care for their children’s needs. Participants will leave this training feeling equipped and confident to start the new school year with their children.

SUMMARY:Parenting with Resilience
DESCRIPTION:PARENT SUPPORT \nWednesday\, May 17\, 2023 10:00 AM –  11:00 AM CT \n\nVirtual \n\nSupport for Parents of Teens and Young Adults \n\nParenting with Resilience is for those who are parenting teens and young adults. This support group style cohort will have evidence-based practices on the unique joys and challenges of parenting teens who have experienced loss\, trauma\, and separation. \nWe want to bring together those of us who are walking the journey of raising teens and young adults who have experienced loss\, trauma\, or separation through kinship care\, foster care\, or adoption. This is a community that can be a soft place to land when walking through hard seasons. \nContact Jordan Hope Vera at jordanhope@iamfosteringhope.org for any questions.
