Foster Care Training

One of the most significant challenges for those supporting system involved youth is to effectively engage youth and families and help them build constructive, transformational behaviors that are sustainable and lead to healthy community engagement and improved outcomes for system involved youth. In this training, we will explore how to enhance our capacity to support the caregivers of system involved youth by exploring how to utilize pertinent Caregiver Engagement techniques that build the framework for ongoing engagement towards redirecting the caregiver energy towards theirs and their children’s emotional development and wellbeing, as well as foster their resilience to be able to heal from traumatic events and lead a meaningful life. Practicing and sharing the methods outlined by this workshop will allow us to deepen our effectiveness with system-involved youth and their families while supporting them towards healthier lifestyles and will help improve the practice of how we empower system-involved youth and families.
