Foster Care Training

Sponsored by Children’s Hospital, Oakland
Virtual Instructor Led Training

This is a 4-hour session that introduces participants to the Tenets through reflective exercises. The content focuses on Tenet #1 (Self-Awareness Leads to Better Services for Families), a selection of our Core Concepts, and bringing the Tenets back to participants’ spheres of work/life. The learning goals for this workshop are:

• To provide an introduction to the meaning, value, and practice of the Tenets
• To deepen awareness of how systems of oppression prevent us all from doing our best work on behalf of infants, children, and families
• To support an initial exploration of how Tenet #1 can be applied to roles and spheres of practice

This workshop is facilitated by two Tenets Workshop Facilitators that have at least 15 years of experience in equity- and diversity-informed training, capacity-building, and clinical practice within the early childhood field. We design our workshops to be collaborative, reflective spaces for participants to link the Tenets to their spheres of practice. We do this by grounding our workshops in self-reflection so that participants and the facilitators are continuously thinking and sharing about the ways that their social identities, values, and histories relate to the Tenets and their collective work.
