FAN Grants

We are committed to making FAN trainings accessible to prenatal-five workers in our region—especially those from BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color), immigrant, and rural communities. One way we do this is by offering no-cost trainings through our Grant Program, where you can attend Practitioner FAN in English and Spanish, and Supervisor FAN in English.

  • FAN helps you be there for families, be present, and allow space and time for trust to be developed, for relationships to deepen, and for families to discover their strengths.

  • Considering different cultural perspectives is so refreshing in trainings like this. I appreciate that it has been included not as an add on, but all throughout.
