Let's Talk Support:
How Do We Help Families Find and Access Them for CFTs
Have you ever asked yourself why families don't take you up on the offer to bring anyone they would like to their child and family team (CFT) meeting? Please join us for an online interactive workshop with activities and discussion about how to engage families in conversation about bringing support people to their CFTs. Bring examples of your challenges and successes with getting support people to the CFT table. We will learn from each other how to make CFT practice in North Carolina work.

Date & Time: 
June 1, 10 AM - 12 AM

Journey is the Destination:
Resilience, Protective Factors, & Youth Success
Why can some youth bounce back from adversity better than others? Why do they seem better protected from the circumstances that brought them into care? In this workshop, we will explore resiliency and protective factors, and learn how to build on these concepts during CFT meetings. Our goal is to turn the CFT journey toward “destination resilience.” 

Date & Time: June 13, 10 AM - 12 PM

**ONLINE**
Military Families and CFTs
Do you work with families with members in the military? Do you want to know more about how the military culture affects child and family team (CFT) participation? This workshop provides a baseline understanding of the military culture and how it affects family participation in the CFT process. This training was developed and is co-trained by a partnership of two trainers who are military family members. You will build skillful ways to support partnerships with military connected families, community partners, and/or social workers using CFTs and be linked with some resources in the process.

Date & Time: June 22, 10 AM - 12 PM

**ONLINE**
The 3rd Dimension of Supervision:

Date & Time: 
June 27, 10 AM - 12 PM
