FAMILY FINDING BOOT CAMP Lethbridge June 5-8, 9:00 am-4:30pm
Family Finding Boot Camps are four-day immersion workshops for staff, supervisors and managers learning the philosophy, framework and skills of Family Finding practice. Participants work in small and medium sized teams, actually practicing Family Finding for children and youth who are in out-of-home care or supporting families who are new to child welfare, using their own files. Participants leave the immersion experience having: - learned and practiced the skills of Family Finding, - developed a sense of confidence in their use of the skills, and most importantly - gained the understanding that Family Finding for most youth and families takes less than 20 hours and can be completed in weeks rather than months. Family Finding is an evidence-based six-step model that responds to those involved in the child intervention system. Research on a variety of Family Finding projects has demonstrated that Family Finding works to significantly increase the number of relatives and other important known adult connections for children in care and leads to an average of five to eight offers of help from these adults.
