Sign Up for an Information Session
One of the best ways to get started with the programs at The Villages is to first attend one of our many Information Sessions across the state, which you will see listed below. If you have further questions, we encourage you to call your nearest office. They are happy to help you with any questions before your visit.
Once you’ve attended an Info Session, it’s time to sign up for your first pre-service foster parent training! You can find those here.
Thank you so much again for your interest in caring for foster children in your home. We can’t wait to meet you!
After COVID, most of our Information Sessions continue to be offered virtually with a few in-person meet and greets. Please click on the location nearest you to find the next Info Session.
Both online and phone registration are available for each office by clicking on the Register Here or Phone Number links. A meeting link will be sent to the email you provide upon registration.
