SUMMARY:Rethink Formulation Half Day Face to Face Workshop
DESCRIPTION:These workshops are for Practitioners and managers working with children and families in Newcastle on a statutory or early intervention basis. \nReThink Formulation is a key component of a Relational and Restorative Approach to Practice. When working with families\, services can get into a pattern of assessments and short-term interventions that end when there have been improvements. However\, families often need help again. Rethink Formulation uses an evidence-based model of case formulation to help us organise information and structure our conversations to reach a shared understanding of a family and their presenting issues\, from which we can base our plans. This formulation can travel with the family into different services and should reduce the number of assessments they have by providing an effective way to analyse the information we already have about their strengths and needs. Rethinking what we know about a family\, and what we then do with that knowledge\, is key to working with that family in a restorative and sustainable way. \nThis is a half day of intensive coaching in the art of formulation. You will learn what the Rethink Formulation model is\, the theory behind it\, where else you might see the principles of formulation and be given the opportunity to practice the model\, and consider how else the model may be used creatively in your practice with children and their families. \nBooking Form \nTo book a place\, please complete booking form and return to wfdadmin@newcastle.gov.uk

SUMMARY:Anti-Racist Practice and Child Exploitation
DESCRIPTION:We are making progress in our fight against exploitation\, but it is clear that responses and outcomes are often not the same for all children and young people. Racially and ethnically minoritised young people are more likely to face disadvantage because of our assumptions and biases\, siloed working\, exclusionary practice\, and wider social inequalities which impact our ability to protect them from harm. \nIn this session we will explore what it means to take a proactive ‘anti-racist’ approach to tackling child exploitation and why this is essential to ensuring we can support and safeguard every young victim. \nIn this session for professionals\, we will: \n\nConsider how our assumptions and biases can influence our efforts to identify\, prevent\, and disrupt the exploitation of children and young people and the impact of disproportionality and discrimination on protecting young people from these forms of harm\n\n\nFurther consider how institutional racism compromises our efforts to prevent exploitation by impacting on young people and communities trust in services and their likelihood to seek help or report exploitation and abuse concerns\n\n\nExplore ‘adultification’ and the importance of recognising victimhood in older children and young adults\n\n\nExplore how we can improve practices to protect and respect young people\, and take an intersectional and holistic approach to working with them\, in order to ensure that all children and young people receive the support they need\n\n\nDemonstrate the value of anti-racist practice in the fight against child exploitation and abuse and the importance of taking a person-centred\, holistic approach.\n\nBook Now
