Harnessing the Power of Therapy: Insights and Practices for Supporting Foster Youth

February 27 @ 11:00 am - 12:30 pm CST

Partners in Care: Nurturing Identity and healing in the Foster System.

National Training & TA Center for Child, Youth, & Family Mental Health

We will explore the profound impact that therapy and other supports can have on individuals navigating the child welfare system, drawing from the personal experiences of those who have lived through it and those who have clinical experience. We will discuss how therapy may serve as a crucial support mechanism, helping to build resilience, self-awareness, and emotional healing. Attendees will gain insights into effective therapeutic practices and other supports that can be beneficial when working with foster youth, as well as common challenges and approaches that may be less effective. By hearing directly from those who have experiences in foster care, participants will gain a deeper understanding of how to tailor their support to meet the unique needs of youth navigating the child welfare system, fostering better outcomes and stronger relationships.
