The Road Less Traveled: Helping Families and Practitioners Navigate the Roadblocks to Progress

What practitioner doesn’t have a child and family that they worry about? The professionals on the team may know the route toward achieving the desired goals, but there can be roadblocks and detours along the way for some families. As coaches, the professionals guide the caregivers through the roadblocks and detours to help them reach their goals. This workshop will help participants identify common roadblocks to progress. Participants will learn how to create a plan with a family, and how to identify if the plan is working. Case studies will be presented and there will be plenty of opportunity for discussion.

  • Identify the common roadblocks to progress.
  • Develop a plan with a family.
  • Determine whether the plan is working.
