We know families are only as healthy as parents. As service
providers for children, we may encounter parents struggling with
mental health issues, high levels of stress, the impact of
trauma, or their own developmental disability. These issues can
make it challenging for parents to meet the complex needs of
their children. Sometimes it’s difficult for providers to know
how best to support a family when one or both parents are in
need of their own support.
In this Provider Academy our presenter, Dr. Barbara Sprout, will
explore some of the family dynamics that service providers may
encounter when working with caregivers – and provide tips on
person-centered strategies for building relationships, addressing
barriers, and engaging with parents to implement those self-care
skills that foster healthier families and will help their children
thrive.
Dr. Sprout is director of CBEM Ukiah, serving Lake and Mendocino County. CBEM is a vendor of
RCRC and provides crisis services and individualized supports to clients of RCRC with the purpose
of preventing and managing a crisis and to empower people to maximize their potential.
