SUMMARY:Fostering Pathways: a 10-week programme empowering BME families to support
DESCRIPTION:This is a 10-week programme for BME families and individuals who want to learn and explore how to become foster carers. \nFostering Pathways: A 10-week programme empowering Black\, Minority\, and Ethnic communities (BME) families to support children who need culturally understanding homes \nThere is a profound need for foster carers who understand the cultural\, religious\, and identity needs of BME children in care. Many BME families face unique barriers or misconceptions regarding the fostering process. Furthermore\, BME children in care are placed in homes that don’t reflect their culture\, identity\, or faith. You could change that! We provide a safe space to discuss faith perspectives\, cultural identity\, and the practicalities of opening your home to a child in need. \nThis programme\, hosted by BMECP\, is your roadmap to understanding the UK fostering system and deciding if this rewarding journey is right for your family.
