Sometimes we receive referrals that state “Father Unknown”, and when this is explored in a meeting with the agencies we have been told “The father is unknown, he isn’t on the birth certificate, he hasn’t seen the child for 8 years, he hasn’t made contact”.
Our insight into trauma.
2020 for us, is what a childhood is like for children in foster care.
We have looked closely over the last few weeks at TLSW and the effects and benefits of this impactful program in the OOHC sector. We looked first through the eyes of the child, and then through the eyes of the caseworker, and could see so very clearly how positive this program is to their journeys. Today we look through perhaps the hardest lense, and that is through the eyes of the biological parent.
Welcome to our blog mini-series featuring the program Therapeutic Life Story Work. We will be releasing one blog per week over a six-week period to help our audience discover and understand this valuable program.
