Finially Got started!!

Today I was finially able to start my internship . When I got there I was taken on a tour of the facility and its pretty impressive. there are 3 sections of sorts to what goes on at the facility, fostercare, adoption, and counseling.

After the tour my supervisor showed me what a foster care child's folder as well as a foster care "Home" file looks like. I was amazed at the amount of paper work that goes into both "types" of files. When you stop and think about it, its good that there is so much documentation because it makes sure that everything is done to ensure the childs well being while they are in the system.

Everyone that I was introduced to seems really nice, as is my supervisor. I think that i am going to be able to learn alot, as well as get some valuable experience from the time I get to spend at my placement site. I am really looking foward to seeing what else lies ahead for me in this new adventure!
