Foster parents are required to complete 27 hours of PRIDE Preservice training as part of the approval process to become a foster parent. Social workers also work with approved foster parents to identify their training and education needs and assist foster parents in accessing the training and education resources that they require. Foster Families Newfoundland and Labrador provides training opportunities for foster families and the Department of Social Supports and Well-Being is also committed to providing additional training as needed.
