Budget cutbacks and arranging face-to-face trainings can make foster parent trainings a real headache. It was in response to this lack of convenient and inexpensive trainings for foster parents, that Impact Training Center launched the Foster Care Support Network (FCSN) in July 2001.

FCSN offers practical parenting advice on a wide variety of topics, such as attachment and bonding, sexualized behavior, anger management, life skills training, and others. Noted experts in foster care often cover topics.

FCSN has approximately 150 member agencies that distribute the trainings to nearly 3,000 foster parents nationwide. The tests are also available in Spanish.
