“ How do you show up ?” With TBRI's Connecting Principle, the essence of self-awareness is paramount. Whether in the dynamic of caregiver to child, caregiver to practitioner, or manager to staff, one must continually inquire: "How do I present myself?" Humans naturally reflect the behaviors they witness, making self-awareness indispensable in fostering meaningful connections. Today, to cultivate stronger bonds with colleagues, stakeholders, caregivers, children, or anyone encountered, embracing self-awareness is key. By understanding our own presence and actions, we can better navigate relationships, fostering empathy, trust, and mutual understanding. #TBRI#trust #selfawareness#kindness#connections

It's astonishing how many of us have shifted our lives to be in this role, often without recognition or support. Amidst the day-to-day challenges, there's another challenge: understanding how this impacts our financial future. #CaregiverCommunity #FinancialPlanning #FuturePlanning

Navigating Transitions: Utilizing Systemic Mapping and Systems Theory in Shifting Children from Residential to Family and Community Care Models"Systemic mapping and systems theory are valuable frameworks when transitioning children from residential care to family and community-based models. Systemic mapping can help visualize the various systems involved—such as the child's biological family, caregivers, social workers, and community resources—and how they interact. Systems theory emphasizes the interconnectedness of these systems and how changes in one system can impact others. Applying these approaches can facilitate smoother transitions by identifying strengths, gaps, and potential challenges in the child's support network. #Transitionroadmap#Childwelfareprograms.
