Caregiver Journey of Hope Workshop – November 7, 2019 (Panama City, Florida)
Caregiver Journey of Hope Workshops (Nov. 7, 9, 17) are interactive 3-hour workshop that aims
to strengthen supportive and effective learning environments for children and youth by promoting
the emotional well-being of parents, caregivers, and any individual involved in a child’s life. The workshop
is designed to support all caregivers in increasing their capacity to give support and guidance to children
that will result in increasing their potential to thrive at school and home. By focusing on the impact that
caregivers have on children, participants will reflect on how life, daily stressors, and reactions to stress
carries over into care-giving. Caregiver Journey of Hope enhances coping skills, builds trust and community,
and identifies individual and community strengths and resources to move towards creating healthy and
productive environments for children.
Caregiver Journey of Hope Facilitators Training (Nov. 15) will train participants in this structured emotional program to provide child caregivers with a safe space to reflect on life’s journey. Facilitators will gain skills to help adults enhance coping skills, develop their natural resiliency, adopt knowledge on stress reactions, and strengthen their social support networks. Offering this workshop to child caregivers opens the door for action to improve the community and school conditions and creates a stable, supportive learning environment for children’s healing, protection, and care.
