Foster Care Training

System-involved youth can engage in risky behaviors such as running away, using substances, involvement in the commercial sex industry, etc. and not be ready to stop engaging in those behaviors. If providers try to pressure youth into changing their behaviors before they’re ready, we can experience a lot of resistance. The Stages of Change Model and Motivational Interviewing help providers better assess where one is at in their change process and how to support them on identifying goals and steps to achieve those goals.
