SUMMARY:ALLIANCE - So You Have a New Placement\, Now What?
DESCRIPTION:Getting a new placement is a big transition\, and there are many ways you can prepare for and navigate the process to make it as successful as possible for yourself\, your family and the youth or child. This webinar addresses both the emotional elements to new placements and the practical details of requirements\, paperwork\, forms and expectations. \nYou will focus on four areas: Getting Ready; The First Day\, Week and Month; Settling In; and Working With the System. You will share ideas with other participants around how to prepare for a new placement\, including ways to make them feel comfortable and safety precautions to take. A big part of this training is understanding which forms you will receive and what they mean; what meetings\, appointments or hearings you need to be aware of; and who the key players are during this time. \nYou will leave the training with an understanding of what is expected during the first 30 days of a new placement. You also will know how to access resources when you have questions – you will probably have many\, but there is a great community of support available to you and the new child in your care. \nCaregivers Register Here

SUMMARY:ALLIANCE - Relative/Kinship Caregiving:  Supporting the Child in Your Care
DESCRIPTION:You made the choice to step in and provide care for a child when they needed it. This choice changed the day-to-day rhythms of your life\, and the life of the child or children you are caring for. The changes that come with assuming full time care of a child bring with them a host of feelings and often added stressors. In this course\, we will explore how this experience is impacting you and how to cope and care for yourself through the inevitable ups and downs. Then\, we will shift our focus to understanding the feelings and behaviors the children are experiencing. It is common for them to have conflicting feelings about their parents\, the situation and even you. We will consider how to accept their feelings\, respond to their statements and questions\, and support them as they navigate this. Lastly\, we will review resources and sources of support\, particularly support for children of all ages who are challenged by this transition and need support to not just survive but to thrive. \nSpecial Instructions:\n\n\nThis course is one of two that are focused on supporting kin caregivers to navigate the changes in their family relationships. The other focuses on understanding how your relationship with the child(ren)’s parents have changed\, and learning a communication technique to reduce conflict and increase collaboration in service of supporting the child(ren). We highly encourage you to sign up for the partner course to this one\, “Raising Your Relative: Navigating Change in Family Dynamics (webinar)” — https://allianceforchildwelfare.org/content/raising-your-relative-naviga… — which focuses on understanding how this has changed your relationships with other adults in your family\, and learning a communication technique to reduce conflict and increase collaboration. \nCaregivers Register Here
