Note: this training was previously called Fostering a Good Life: An Interactive Training for Foster Providers
This 90-minute session will focus on the important role of foster providers in planning with children, teens, and adults in foster care and supporting opportunities to build positive life experiences. There will be a focus on tools and resources that can help foster providers better understand, plan with, and support people toward experiences that build self-determination, social capital, economic sufficiency, and community inclusion. This workshop is intended for foster providers and their employees.
During this training we will:
- Build planning skills, specifically focusing on present and future life outcomes that consider all life domains
- Use the life domains framework and tool to explore the current realities in our lives while also thinking about what life experiences we want to have
- Deepen understanding of how trauma can impact a person’s life experiences and discuss tools that can support someone to explore life goals and plan for the future
NOTE: This 90-minute session is for foster providers and their staff.
