Everyone Needs a Secure Base: Secure Base and Support for Adoptive, Fostering & Special Guardian Families

Trainer - Joan Hunt

In order to provide a secure base for children and young people, their parents and carers need to have a secure base themselves. The Secure Base Model, developed by Gillian Schofield and Mary Beeks, is an internationally recognised model for caring for children who have experienced abuse and trauma. The model has many applications that are valuable for social work professionals in their day to day duties. This training session will introduce delegates to the Secure Base Model for therapeutic parenting, the assessment of carers, assessment of adopters and foster carers and also consider its application for Support Provision.

By the end of the day participants will have:
• Explored the five Secure Base domains
• Secure Base Tools for Assessment
• Secure Base for Carers and their Support Plan support
• Considered looking after us; supporting team members

Audience

Social Workers, Adoption Social Workers, Supervising Social Workers , Kinship Social Workers, Support Workers, independent Social Workers and Managers who are involved with Assessments.
