Join us as we grow our insights and relationships with other caretakers on our foster/kinship/adoption journey.
Youth Centered, Strength Based Care
October 23, 2024 • 6:30 - 8:30 p.m. EDT Instructor: Jon Hester
Two key values considered pivotal in creating nurturing, enriching therapeutic environments are person-centered and strength-based care. A youth-centered environment means empowering the individuals to feel directly involved in their care, treatment, and journey to success.
Working hand in hand with the concept of youth-centered is the idea of a strength-based approach to care - building from and celebrating the child’s competencies or abilities instead of overly focusing on deficits. This workshop aims to equip attendees with the knowledge and skills necessary to integrate both approaches to care into their existing framework.

Maybe you signed up for reunification but reunification is not happening for your child. Maybe you hoped to adopt but now the child is leaving. Maybe you’re happy for reunification but do not feel 100% that things are resolved to ensure a child’s safety.
You may agree with what’s happening, but it is common to feel lot of emotions about a foster care case outcome. Come support each other and learn how to move forward regardless of the outcome.
