SUMMARY:ALLIANCE - Kinship 101:  Information for Relatives and Suitable Others (webinar)
DESCRIPTION:The financial\, legal\, and emotional issues of raising a relative’s child can be challenging. Services and support when raising a relative’s child can be a lifesaver.  Kinship caregiving in all of its forms is becoming increasingly common.  Recent WA State child welfare data (Partners for Our Children-1/1/2015)   show that 41 percent of children in out of home care are living with a relative.  Many more children are living with relatives or other close family friends informally\, without the ongoing supervision of the state’s foster care system. \nOften kinship caregivers do not access the benefits which are available to them. This class will address the issues that Kinship Caregivers struggle with most: \n\nFinancial Needs\nLegal Challenges\nNavigating public service systems\nNeeding more social services\nInformation about resources/caregiving\n\nThis 90 minute webinar is designed for licensed and unlicensed caregivers caring for children currently or previously involved in the dependency system.  Caregiver Core Training (CCT) is not a prerequisite. However\, this course is supplemental to CCT for kinship caregivers\, and can be a field experience during CCT. \nCaregivers Register Here

SUMMARY:ALLIANCE - Understanding and Managing Caregiver's Own Emotions and Self Care
DESCRIPTION:As a caregiver the very best thing you can do for those who depend on you is to take care of yourself! \nCaregivers are expected to welcome children who have been traumatized into their homes and invest emotionally and physically into the children. Caregivers are expected to separate gracefully when the time comes for the children to move on. The caregiver’s responsibilities and personal sacrifices in caring for someone else can be challenging for even the most experienced caregivers. \nThis 6 hour focused topic training for caregivers teaches how to reduce your stress\, find more energy and improve your resilience while you care for difficult children and demanding expectations.  The course includes opportunities for self-reflection and insight\, short term goal setting and practical self-care and stress reduction techniques. \nLuanne Hawley has been a licensed foster parent for 25 years\, as well as a relative care provider and adoptive parent. She has been an advocate for Foster Parents and Care Providers having provided support services through the FIRST (Foster Intervention and Retention Support Team) program for many years. \nCaregivers Register Here
