Foster Care Training

Managers (both new and experienced) often find themselves supervising staff from instinct. This method often falls short of meeting the needs of supervisees and ultimately impacting the youth that these supervisees serve. This training is designed to help participants gain managerial skills that supplement their instincts so that they can better support successful foster youth outcomes. This combination should result in managers facilitating the development of their supervisees on an ongoing basis. Participants will explore practical strategies for successful supervision of staff from the beginning of the relationship. Setting performance goals, giving feedback and effective documentation will be covered.
