Abstract
ABSTRACT FosterCARE training is a behaviorally based, empirically supported program developed to provide foster parents with skills for interacting effectively with youth (aged 2–18) with trauma histories. In this paper, we suggest that the trauma-informed skills, wide age range, and focus on parent–child interactions inherent within the FosterCARE model could provide a promising foundation to serve LGBTQIA+ foster youth and their families. This article describes potential additions to the FosterCARE model and provides the rationale for the use of a FosterCARE-LGBTQIA+ module. Recommendations for the future pilot testing of the FosterCARE LGBTQIA+ module using an evidence-based framework are included, with limitations discussed.
