If you are a foster parent, you are also able to get CEU credit. Visit https://lifelinechild.org/video/ceu-back-to-school-preparing-for-a-successful-year/ for this helpful video as you prepare for a new school year. LIFELINE CHILDREN'S SERVICESThe mission of Lifeline Children’s Services is to equip the Body of Christ to manifest the gospel to vulnerable children.
