C8 Child and Family Teaming: Engagement and Partnership with Transitional-Aged Youth
Catalina Ortiz-Hillestad; Jeff Koff
The workshop, intended for
child welfare, probation, education, and
providers and staff who work with
Transitional-Aged Youth (TAY), will
provide information about the need for engaging
TAY through Child and Family Teams (CFTs). The specificity and uniqueness of
needs in this population will be presented, and participants will develop an
awareness of integrated strategies and resources for authentic engagement in
the lives of these youth within a CFT framework. The workshop will provide an
opportunity for participants to ask questions and share strategies for
effective partnerships between TAY and CFTs.
