NEW! Child Welfare at Work: a blog for the workforce
Welcome to Child Welfare at Work! We created this blog to share lessons and resources for the workforce.
At CWEL, our mission is to enhance the child welfare workforce, improving workforce recruitment and retention through site-specific support.
We understand what’s preventing child welfare professionals and families from thriving. For example, graduates face challenges when considering careers in child welfare, and child welfare staff lack opportunities for clinical licensure.
This is why we’re committed to the following initiatives:
- Fostering leadership development for professionals
- Providing Culture Keepers fellowships in Tribal child welfare
- Creating educational pathways for future child welfare staff
- Providing pathways to clinical licensure
- Offering technical assistance to teach supervisors about coaching practices
These tangible solutions can help the workforce progress and improve outcomes for children and families.
