PAYA training for foster families

Hi all

I have a few foster homes in need of PAYA training. So I am doing training on Thursday October 25th in the Salem Office.

Anyone who has a teen should attend! All are welcome.

 

What is PAYA?  Preparing Adolescents for Young Adulthood.

It is independent living skills that all teens in care should learn.

 

PAYA is a curriculum developed by DCF in Massachusetts which helps adolescents develop or strengthen life skills through modules covering the following areas:

♦  Money, home, and food management
♦  Personal care, health, social skills, and
    safety
♦  Education, job seeking skills, and job 
    maintenance skills
♦  Housing, transportation, community resources,
    understanding,the law, and recreation
