Foster Care Training

One of the most significant challenges for those supporting system involved youth who have experienced health disparities is to effectively help them find motivation to succeed in life and overcome and transform adversity. One solution is to help System Involved youth find motivation to step into their greatest self, based on their strengths, passions, and life experiences, that are sustainable and lead to improved relationship, life, and career outcomes. In this training, we will explore how to enhance our capacity to support system involved youth by exploring Motivational Strategies and Practices that prepare us to foster young people’s emotional development and wellbeing, as well as strengthen their resilience and ability to heal from traumatic events and build meaningful relationships. Practicing and sharing the methods outlined by this workshop will allow us to improve the practice of how we empower system-involved youth and families.
