Become a Guest Speaker for our Foster Parent Support Group!
We’re seeking guest speakers for our Foster Parent Support Group! Once a month, our foster parents meet to discuss challenges, share resources, and support each other with the guidance of our social workers. We’re looking for speakers to present on a variety of topics including:
Parenting
Mental Health
Substance Use
Behavioral Addictions
Medical and Community Resources
Educational Resources (IEPs, 504 plans, advocating for special education, bullying, etc.)
Teen Support
Financial Literacy & Planning
Our group meets every third Wednesday of the month at noon via video call. Interested in helping out foster parents by sharing what you know? Contact our Family Resource Coordinator Marissa Lacelle at (617) 945-4546 or mlacelle@bridgeshomeward.org. Tell her about your topic and how you want to present, and she will handle the rest. If you are unavailable at noon on Wednesdays, Marissa can help coordinate a different date for you to present!
