Thirty of our dedicated team members were actively engaged in a valuable two-day continuing education session offered by our community partner Bethesda Services. The Therapeutic Respite Training Series was offered through in-person sessions, as well as virtually to our Community Engagement Providers. Our team enjoyed sharpening their skills and expanding their knowledge about therapeutic respite to better serve our respite clients and community partners.
This training series aims to build capacity by providing meaningful and effective Therapeutic Respite Services to children and youth with Autism by enhancing the knowledge and skills of Ontario’s respite providers. The Therapeutic Respite Training Series includes foundational knowledge; strategies for respite preparation; proactive and reactive strategies; safety planning; and more, to enhance our team’s delivery of compassionate and effective therapeutic respite supports for children and youth with Autism.
Thanks to Bethesda Services, and to each of our Community Engagement Providers for investing time and energy into continuous learning opportunities!
