What is PRIDE (Parent Resources for Information, Development and Education)?
Developed in Illinois in 1993, PRIDE is a competency-based model for the development and support of resource (foster and adoption) families. It is designed to strengthen the quality of foster care and adoption services by providing a standardized, structured framework for recruiting, preparing and selecting foster and adoptive parents. It also provides foster parent inservice training and ongoing professional development.
The components of the PRIDE Program are:
- Nine Pre-Service training modules (27 hours)
- “Connection” homework assignments related to each session
- Mutual Family Assessment – competency based and integrated with SAFE
- Family Development Planning Tools (for ongoing education)
- Nine In-Service training modules also available in digital format
Session Eight: Planning for Change
Session Eight explores the challenge of keeping children and youth safe and feeling secure with a focus on children and youth who have been sexually abused. The session looks at how your family would be different after having a child or youth placed in your care or after adopting a child or youth. Session Eight takes a practical view of what to expect during the first hours, days and weeks of a child or youth's placement in a home. This session explores the long-range impact of placement as well. The session ends with a look at how resource families find support from other team members and professionals.
