On October 24th, the Annie E. Casey Foundation released a free, five-part online video training series that teaches child welfare professionals how to engage kinship caregivers. The videos are facilitated by kinship care expert, Dr. Joseph Crumbley, who has trained and consulted worldwide on the unique experiences and issues facing kinship families.
The videos are the first of their kind, in which child welfare professionals will learn strategies to better navigate their relationships and understand the perspectives of the families they serve. A facilitator’s guide will accompany every video to encourage discussion among local staff.
