Fostering Connections Tribal Gatherings
Three Regional Gatherings Focused on the Fostering Connections to Success and Increasing Adoptions Act of 2008

In collaboration with the Children’s Bureau, the National Child Welfare Resource Center for Tribes (NRC4Tribes), in conjunction with the National Child Welfare Resource Center for Organizational Improvement and National Resource Center for Permanency and Family Connections, will sponsor three national tribal gatherings focused on the Fostering Connections to Success and Increasing Adoptions Act of 2008.

The gatherings will feature plenary sessions, peer group discussions, and opportunities to network with counterparts from other tribes, national resource centers and regional office staff. The gatherings will also be an opportunity for participants to learn more about the Children’s Bureau Training and Technical Assistance Network and how T&TA can support tribal child welfare program needs.
