Take Part in FREE Volunteer Training in Family Group Conferencing Facilitation April 20-21

Make a lasting difference for children and families in our community by volunteering as a Family Group Conference (FGC) Coordinator! The CDR will provide training April 20-21 for those who wish to volunteer to facilitate family group conferences for kids with a parent in recovery.

Family group conferences bring a family together with relatives, friends, and other supportive people in their lives to develop a plan to support the parent in recovery and ensure the safety and well-being of the children involved. Family group conferencing helps develop and strengthen a family’s support network, benefiting children and their family groups, while putting the family at the center of decision-making as they create plans that fit their unique circumstances.
