Therapeutic foster parents are given advanced training in the general skills required to care for severely emotionally disturbed children as well as specific training geared to meet the needs of the child who has been placed in their home. Parents in therapeutic foster homes are more closely supervised and assisted more than parents in regular foster homes.
