CANS stands for the Child and Adolescent Needs and Strengths assessment. Understanding CANS will help you to best serve the child or teen placed in your home as a foster placement. It will also help you know the purpose behind the assessment being done.

Understanding Child and Adolescent Needs and Strengths (CANS) Assessments

The Go-to Podcast for Christian Women Who Want to Grow Their Family through Foster Care or Adoption:
　
Do you struggle with constant overwhelm or have way more questions than answers while navigating the foster care system? 
Are you feeling like you’re losing yourself while trying to help your foster child or heal your adopted children? 
Do you feel completely ill-equipped with the needs of the kiddos in your home or that you took on more than you should have?

What if there was a way that you could navigate the complexities of the foster care system, gain powerful insights into the adoption journey and find more peace and less chaos while balancing it all?
Hi new friend, I’m Christine Marie, Christian Biblical Mindset coach, Mom of 4- Adoptive Mom of 2 and previous foster parent of 77 children.
I can’t wait to share with you everything I have learned in my 10 year journey as a Foster Mom… and now adoptive mom. 
　
On this podcast, we are going to cover- 
-How to grow your family through foster care and adoption while fully trusting in Gods’ plan, timing and provision. 
-How to navigate a complicated foster care system without losing yourself or your mind in the process.
-How to balance the needs of your birth children, foster kiddos and adoptive children.
-How to balance your marriage, family, career and mental health. 
-How I found my own personal healing through all the brokenness. 

I am thankful you are here and can’t wait to get started.

XO, Christine
