It builds on the basic principles of strength-based practices and moves knowledge and skills of line workers and supervisors to the next level of strength-based practice.
The seven day line worker series and the three supervisor classes can be completed in part or as a whole series. Participants who attend all seven classes for line workers will receive a certificate of completion. It is recommended that courses be taken in the order listed below.
