Navigating challenging family dynamics can feel like assembling an intricate puzzle. When after-school providers are added to the picture, it can introduce another layer of complexity-while also offering opportunities for greater connection and support. This webinar explores how program staff can create a safe and consistent space for youth outside the family, while also working to harmonize their relationships with families and caregivers. Whether it’s setting consistent routines and expectations within the program, rethinking how to reach and engage hard-to-reach families, or offering strategies to families and caregivers that foster effective communication and establish routines at home to reinforce familial bonds, program staff have a crucial role to play. Join us as we explore how to build a supportive environment that fosters growth and understanding for everyone involved.
