The Kentucky Foster and Adoptive Parent Training and Support Network

The Lakes/Purchase Region Team

The Kentucky Foster and Adoptive Parent Training and Support Network is an organization dedicated to helping state approved foster and adoptive parents across Kentucky. Each region of Kentucky has at least one team of trained, seasoned foster and/or adoptive parents who are dedicated to the support, retention, recruitment, and training of foster and adoptive parents within the region. Teams work with staff of the Department for Community Based services to provide quality training and support. Team members are trained in Psychological First Aid in order to be able to provide support to parents in crisis.
