SW390H Continuum of Care: Supporting Our Healthy Boundaries for Youth and Family Well Being 6 CEUs TIVE02-202380

Instructor: Pamela Parkinson

If you work as part of a team, do you all agree on what healthy relationship boundaries with our clients should look like? We provide services to our youth and their families in their own homes, in schools and in their communities; this can be confusing for us and for our clients as to what our roles are and what kinds of relationships are being developed. The true helping relationship requires clear boundaries so we don't unintentionally exploit our clients, undermine our team members, or experience our own "burn out." This training clarifies what we mean by boundaries, ways in which we might be over-stepping them, what is meant by dual relationships, and issues re: the boundaries relating to physical contact with our kids.
