Sorry about that, Jean. Yes, the
"How to Build a Foster Program" course is still available in Maddie's University. We've moved the University to a new platform since this original post was made in 2018 so the link has changed. Here's the new link to the course:
https://university.maddiesfund.org/products/how-to-build-a-foster-program#tab-product_tab_overview If you're specifically looking for a Foster Program Satisfaction survey, you should also check out the
Foster Assessment System (FAST-15) tool. It's a free automated survey tool to assess engagement and satisfaction of current foster volunteers. The 15-question survey was designed by graduates and faculty in the Organizational Science Doctoral Program at the University of North Carolina, Charlotte. I've attached the Survey to this post if you'd like to see what questions are asked.
(Please note: the developers are working on FAST-15 today so although you can read about the tool in the link I provided above, you may not be able to signup or login until tomorrow).------------------------------

Hi - You can find a sample survey in our brand new How to Build a Foster Program course for Maddie's University, authored for Maddie's Fund by J. Scarlett Kingsley of UC Davis. Below is a link to the free course. The downloadable survey with sample questions is in the Resource tab in Lesson 10 - Retaining Foster Families. It's a Word doc so you can customize it according to your needs. The entire course has 10 short, interactive modules and is primarily for those who are just starting to build a foster program - but it offers a LOT of downloadable resources throughout, and some great information on recruiting, training and retaining foster volunteers. Have a look! And thank you for all you are doing to save the animals!
Here is a link to the course - it's free to register!
