Foster Care Training

Changing systems to support best practices can often be discouraging when conversations do not lead to actions. If the conversation is collapsed, it can create more harm and recreate the same systemic issues that need to be addressed. This training validates the importance of including the voice of the provider and explores the immediate need to take a proactive, restorative and harm reduction approach. Providers will discuss new approaches to embody anti-racist work while working within systems of care. This training will provide tools to empower providers and youth to disrupt harmful language or experiences by responding in ways that everyone can feel safe and valued at the Assessment Center.
