Communities of Practice aims to improve the lives and outcomes of children and families by creating a space for practitioners to come together and explore difficult practice issues within the Permanency Support Program.
In this Communities of Practice, participants will explore the conundrums that surround working with birth families of children in long term care. Using a deidentified case study, we will discuss challenges such as working with birth parents who are not supportive of their child’s placement and when children don’t want to attend family time.
