Churchill Fellowship Report Part 2: Walking with Families - Interventions and Recommendations

from The Adoption and Fostering Podcast · host Al Coates & Scott Casson-Rennie

To mark a year since I completed and released my Fellowship Report I'm re releasing the podcast. Since then I've partnered with Beacon Family Services and we've put into place some of the recommendations in the Walking with Families peer support community. You can find out more or sign up here.    Hello and welcome to this second episode of Al's Churchill Fellowship. You can read the full report here. Developing the themes in Part 1 this podcast considers how parents and carers are supported by focused organisations. Rather than look at specific models of intervention, of which there are many,  it considered how families interacted and accessed the interventions and specifically how they were delivered to the families. Again, drawing heavily from Interwoven Connections based in Ontario, Canada the interplay of parent/carer, peer supporter and clinical staff is highlighted.   ‘It’s never about whether a parent is doing a great job. They’re doing the very best they can with what they’ve got.’ Lillyth Quillin, Parents of Children with Conduct Disorter, California, USA
