What is MAPP Training?

MAPP stands for the Massachusetts Approach to Partnership in Parenting and is the state mandated pre-adoptive parent training. This is a class that must be attended by all pre-adoptive parents and is intended to help pre-adoptive parents understand the impact of abuse and neglect on children and the needs of these children; identify the skills necessary to be a successful adoptive parent of a foster child(ren); and determine whether adopting a foster child(ren) is a good fit for you and your family. MAPP Class involves 6 virtual training sessions with approximately 3 to 5 hours of online self-paced learning required before each training session. You must be available to attend all sessions and commit to doing the online learning. MAPP Class is currently being offered three or four times a year via Teams on weekday evenings.
