I am sorry but due to past difficulties, I can no accept checks from anyone other than DCF employees.  I also can not accept post dated checks etc. It is too difficult to keep track of and someone I always end up short L  If you are buying more than one park at a time, please write separate checks for each park.  It is easier for me to separate by park and deposit as needed.

pay schedule

Folks have been asking so I am resending. You should get next years soon!

Encounter forms

Attached are encounter forms.

I know some foster parents have asked for more copies (which we can send you anytime)

 

I have attached the 30 day screening encounter form for when you have a new placement as well as the encounter form.

You can pre-populate with child’s info.

 

Please make sure child’s name is on the form.

I have a pile at my desk from foster parents with no child info so they will never make it to be entered as they should.

 

Thanks!

Carla

Subject: For foster teens...2014 DCF College Fair - Save the Date!

 

Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to send a quick reminder about the College Fair next week.  We have over 30 colleges confirmed to attend!  Please continue to share the information with social workers, students, foster parents and other providers in your areas.
Thanks

Jen Hubbard

Adolescent Outreach Worker

 Dear Colleagues,

 

Attached please find a flyer for the 8^th Annual College Admissions and Information Fair that will be hosted by the Massachusetts Department of Children and Families Education and Training Voucher Program. The College Fair will take place from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Tuesday, April 22^nd, 2014 at the Holiday Inn, 265 Lakeside Avenue, Marlboro, MA 01752. Free parking is available.

 

The DCF College Fair is an opportunity for high school aged DCF youth to learn about the various degree and certificate programs available through the public and private college higher education system. Students, foster parents, social workers, and providers will be able to speak with admissions staff about exciting activities and resources offered through community colleges, vocational training programs, four-year public/private universities and the University of Massachusetts.

 

These degree and certificate programs provide vital education and training to foster youth.  The event will allow younger foster youth to begin thinking about college and older youth to explore concrete opportunities available to them now.

 

Last year’s event had a tremendous turnout of students, foster parents and various social service agencies.  Numerous Massachusetts public and private colleges and universities were represented last year, as well as the Massachusetts Education Financing Authority. 

 

Please distribute the attached flyers throughout your programs and make arrangements for your DCF students that you feel would benefit to attend.  Please feel free to distribute the flyer to other providers, foster parents and community members that work with foster youth.

 

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. Thank you for your assistance with helping DCF

foster youth achieve their post-secondary educational and vocational goals.

 

Thank You,
