Foster parent training classes will be offered

Youthville is currently in need of foster parents, especially those able to care for an older child or a child with special needs.

Free training classes, called Model Approach to Partnerships in Parenting (MAPP), will be held Thursdays beginning March 24 in Newton.

Many foster children come from families with serious problems such as abuse, neglect, and ineffective parenting.

Individuals who are age 21 or older, married or single, live in an apartment or house, and are interested in foster parenting, can enroll in the class by calling Youthville at 800-593-1950, ext. 194.
