TRAINING SUMMARY & OBJECTIVES
Training
Summary:
This training
focuses on how child welfare staff must work together with other staff, the
youth and family, outside professionals, extended family, and friends, as well
others in order to provide coordinated support for youth in out-of-home care
and their extended network. Working
together is critical to successfully supporting youth in crisis.
We explore
collaboration, direct communication, and feedback. We also look at what type of
engagement strategy is most helpful in responding to crisis and the importance
of valuing the energy of co-workers. Didactic presentation, small and large
group exercises are utilized.
Class
