Our Official Calendar for In-Person and Live Online Classes!

The Center for Family and Community Engagement and the North Carolina Division of Social Services presents the official in-person and online trainings for the remainder of the year. We are excited to go back to in-person trainings and provide our trainees with a safe learning and networking environment. Our trainings and materials are guided by family, youth and community perspectives. We work with and engage our audiences in the learning environment to provide quality learning experiences. 

We have trainings scheduled for these five curricula:

Building Cultural Safety: This training is designed to develop participants’ knowledge of significant facts and concepts related to cultural safety, diversity, inclusion and cultural competency.

Domestic Violence: The intent of this training is to link the North Carolina Child Welfare Domestic Violence Policy to child welfare practices. In this interactive training, participants will learn how to assess and intervene in child welfare cases involving domestic violence through the use of formal and informal resources.

Engaging the Non-Resident Father for Child Welfare: This training is designed to provide workers with knowledge to further support a practice shift toward engaging non-resident fathers in child welfare cases involving their children.

Connecting Families: This program is designed for family support, self-sufficiency case managers, and family resource center workers. The program provides instruction on the skills necessary for working successfully with families and individuals in center-based programs, in community-based programs, in support groups of all kinds, and through home visiting.

Navigating Child and Family Teams: Strategies will be presented for partnering with the case-carrying social worker, creating an environment of physical and emotional safety, encouraging effective communication amongst child and family team participants, managing conflict and denial and including the voices of children and youth at meetings.
