Free online course

Engaging and sustaining the focus of youth in care for case planning and implementation can be especially challenging, given their experience both prior to and while in care. This training will discuss concepts of motivation, examine youth needs and how they may be met, consider where youth may be in the Stages of Change, and identify and utilize tools for assessing youth motivation. Practice using a model for engaging youth and increasing their motivation will enable caregivers to assist youth with their successful transition to self-sufficiency, via life skills development and future planning.
