Introductions....

My name is Nancy. I live in Provo, Utah. I have been employed as a foster care caseworker, a foster care supervisor and even for a short time, the state foster care specialist (though that position has a different name now). Today I train foster parents through a non-profit agency. I'm a licensed social worker in Utah. I also have a Master's Degree in School Counseling and as of August 1, 2009 I am a licensed foster parent!

I am developing a philosophy about child welfare which I would like to share with you. I have a few soap box topics that I'm sure I will address shortly. I also want to make myself available to support you in your fostering experience, answer questions about Child Welfare practices in Utah (and I promise, if I don't know the answer, I won't make it up, I'll find it or I'll link you to where you can find it).

I also want to inspire and motivate you! If you are not yet a foster or adoptive parent in Utah; I want to recruit you, if you meet the minimal criteria. I'll get into that a little later, too.
