The Special Dynamics, Needs & Issues of Kinship Caregivers

 
Whenever a child enters the child welfare system, an effort is made to find kinship family members who can care for the child and prevent that child from entering the foster care system. While children in kinship care will also have a trauma history like other children in care, kinship caregivers' need the same training around trauma-informed care, and also training and support around the special and unique issues they face being kinship caregivers. 
 
In this session, you'll discover: 
  • What special issues and challenges kinship caregivers experience. 
  • Practical tips for kinship caregivers to navigate these special issues. 
  • Resources that support kinship caregivers.
