This workshop aims to equip social care practitioners with the knowledge and skills to cultivate authentic connections and relationship roles that contribute to the overall well-being and quality of life for people with disabilities. The workshop is based upon the belief that when our communities are able to invite, welcome and appreciate the contributions of its most vulnerable members, we all benefit. Communities need support to discover these contributions. Support practitioners need a vision of possibility, a sound approach and effective strategies to take action.
This workshop is for social care practitioners who are serious about exploring and discovering the opportunities for welcome, engagement, and relationship that abound in our communities! Although our day to day life has looked different over the last few years – there are tried and true ways to plan and take next steps to help people lead purposeful, meaningful lives where they participate, contribute and belong. If you are involved with planning and supporting a person to be a fuller member of their community and need a practical approach that works, this workshop is for you!
