Expectations
Each month, a short video with a worksheet will be posted to the WCWPDS website. The worksheet will ask you to reflect on what you have learned from the video and develop an action plan to put the knowledge and skills into practice. A one-hour facilitated discussion will be held on the last Tuesday (3:00 pm – 4:00 pm) and Wednesday (8:30 am – 9:30 am) of each month (March – December 2023) to answer questions and gather tips from colleagues. You need only attend one of the sessions.
Target Audience
The 2023 Learning Collaborative videos and discussions are open to all Child Welfare Professionals from counties, tribal and private partner agencies including Support Staff. Supervisors and directors are strongly encouraged to join the learning collaborative.
