Open House Schedule for Fall 2008:

One of the first steps in obtaining a foster care license or adoption license in CT is to attend what is traditionally called an Open House.  At an Open House event you will receive information about both the foster care and adoption processes.  You will be afforded an opportunity to ask questions.  And you will leave with a packet of information and contact information.  If you would like to attend an Open House you are welcome to attend any of the events listed below.  Please consider calling the person listed for that event to assure that a packet of information will be reserved for you.  Walk-ins, however,  are always welcome.

FAM makes every effort to list all Open House events for each of our partners.  Casey Family Services and CRI do not hold traditional Open Houses in our geographic area.  Please go to our partners page and click on their links to find out how to schedule an appointment with them or to get more information about their foster care programs.
