Repairing Broken Threads – reunification practice and process

Work to reunify children and young people in care with their families is complex, sensitive, challenging and rewarding. Research tells us that most children and young people living away from their families will reconnect with family – at some point, in some way. Even for those who cannot ‘go home’, research suggests there are benefits in some level of family connection. The craft of this work lies in how to optimise the level of reconnection for individual children and young people. If you are interested in exploring this area of practice with a view to clarifying and consolidating your understanding, skills and approach in reunification practice and process, this is the workshop for you. Contemporary thinking and evidence are used to inform activities designed to develop your knowledge and skills in assessing safety, planning effective supports and interventions and ability to engage in collaborative work with children, young people, their families and carers in this emotive and critical area of practice.

Who should attend?

Government and non-government practitioners supporting vulnerable children, young people and families, youth workers, residential and SILS workers, foster and kin care support workers, family support workers and staff from Family Wellbeing Services and Delegated Authority

Holding the space – effective supervision practice

So many professionals with supervisory responsibilities in child, youth and family services talk about learning ‘how’ to supervise solely from their ‘on-the-job’ experience. Often the main source of knowledge is their own experience of being supervised by others, with many telling us they need more. One of our most popular workshops, this interactive training provides you with what you need to be more effective as a supervisor. You will explore contemporary supervision frameworks, models, principles and core processes to help build your own approach to supervision with individual staff and teams or groups. This workshop is delivered by professionals who have delivered supervision and trained others in this for over 25 years and is suitable for beginning supervisors or those more experienced who are wanting to revitalise their practice.

Who should attend?

Government and non-government agency workers, across the child, youth and family sectors. New supervisors, those who currently supervise staff and workers interested in taking on a supervisory role workers interested in taking on a supervisory role.
