SKILLS-Building Programs

About: These targeted programs provide participants an opportunity to learn and practice specific, practical skills, and to gain a clear understanding of the underlying concepts and principles. The programs blend traditional instructor-led training techniques with many experiential and interactive methods including: multimedia, videos, role-play, demonstrations, and exercises. Time is reserved for group discussions and debriefing periods after participants practice skills, to provide participants with the opportunity to share their experiences and to identify and address any barriers to learning. 

Curriculum: These programs are available as workshops and training and may cover a range of topics. The curriculum is adaptable to target diverse audiences and a wide range of knowledge- and skill-levels. The programs may be adaptable for community members, including parents and caregivers, and professionals, organizations, agencies, and community groups that provide mental health and social services and supports to children and youth.

Audience and Environment: These facilitation services are most suitable for small to medium sized groups. The Workshops and Trainings may be delivered in-clinic, on-site, or in the community.

Delivery Method: All programming is delivered in-person, and may be adaptable to the following formats and intensities: Single Session (1-hour to full day), Multi-Session, Intensive 1- and 2-day Program, and Comprehensive Program Series (with follow-up consultation sessions upon request).
