How do you find MAPP classes?

I have searched online and am not having much luck. I have contacted one place but they do not have them on the weekends and that is what we need. How did you find your classes? Thank you.

Try calling some agencies. I found one online

(edited to remove agency link)

Look in your phone book under foster care or adoption and call around. Here we use the FSS (Family support services) so if you have one of those nearby call them.

Also try here:
