Building the Bridge from Client to Community Member

This 3 session series starting on 7th, 8th and 9th March from 9.30am to 12.30pm each day will explore and discuss how we introduce, both deliberately and intentionally, community centred work as a legitimate and important part of person centred work.

Through this workshop participants will learn, discuss and practice person centred and community centred approaches through:
o Discussing the principles and philosophy of ABCD
o Practical strategies to find and engage community assets
o Principles of Community Mobilization
o Discovering Care & Learning Conversations
o Exploring how agencies and communities work together more effectively
o Building an ABCD community partnership
o Practicing with effective tools; circles of support, mapping relationships and harmonising the things worth doing

This training is endorsed by ABCD Asia Pacific
