Out-Of-Home Care Providers & Carers
Strengthening support for children and young people in care
Kinship, foster, residential care staff, and permanent carers play the most pivotal role in shaping the lives of the children and young people they care for, providing them with a safe and stable place to live. To strengthen out-of-home care services and ultimately improve outcomes for at-risk children, we designed this learning pathway to empower caregivers. It offers the skills and trauma-informed strategies they need to create positive, supportive, and nurturing living environments.
Offered as an annual subscription, your team will get unlimited access to this learning pathway. Learners can progress through the online modules at their own pace throughout the year and take away customisable templates and checklists. Get in touch for our detailed pricing structure.
