How do you explain, at the outset of services, what information will be considered in making the next court recommendation? How do you provide frequent and candid feedback on case plan progress without developing a deficit-based relationship? How do you maintain continuity across visits rather than narrowly addressing the crisis of the month? This workshop explores ways to use the reunification reassessment "throughout the life of a case." Participants are introduced to techniques addressing these issues and are then given an opportunity to practice.
Topics include
- Overview of the Reunification Reassessment tool, how to use it and when
- How to use the assessment tool and the language of SDM when working with families
- The use of SDM to clarify expectations with families and to monitor progress
- How to use the Reunification Reassessment tool to support recommendations in court
