We hope you will join us in celebrating Child Welfare Workforce Development Month throughout September 2019!
For agencies,
it's a time to focus on how to better support and recognize your most important asset - the workforce.
For child welfare professionals,
it's an opportunity to get refocused on the heart work. This is about remembering why you do this challenging work; learning new skills that will improve your impact and resilience; and finding ways to lift and support those around you.
Child Welfare Worker Appreciation Week
is September 9-13, 2019 and to celebrate, NCWWI and the Children’s Bureau are
co-hosting a one-hour inspirational live recognition event on Tuesday, September 10 at 3:00 pm EDT
(2:00 pm CDT, 1:00 pm MDT, 12:00 pm PDT, 11:00 am AKDT, 9:00 am HIST) where you will hear from child welfare leaders expressing their appreciation for all you do.
We encourage agencies to reserve meeting space for colleagues and teams to watch the presentation together, and for staff to reserve this hour on their calendar. Register below to receive additional details.
