Kinship Connections: How schools can partner with kinship families
|
Kinship Connections is an online learning session for teachers, counselors, administrators, and other family-facing professionals about supporting grandparent-headed and other kinship families within the education system. The workshop will include an overview of kinship care, caregiver personal stories, and strategies for partnering and supporting kinship families in schools.
Some questions we will address:
- What is the difference between kinship care and foster care?
- Do all caregivers have legal custody?
- How is trauma related to the formation of kinship families?
- What are the strengths of kinship families?
- How might these factors affect a child’s and family’s wellbeing?
