MATCH training final

What is MATCH?


Foster Adopt Connect's MATCH Program is designed by foster, kinship, and adoptive parents specifically for families interested in, or who have already adopted from foster care. Based on trauma-informed practice and lived experience, MATCH will help families be informed and prepared for their adoption journey.
MATCH is a supplemental training curriculum that complements other pre-service trainings such as MAPP Foundations and the National Training and Development Curriculum (NTDC).
