In addition to caregiver training, professional training and development is available for behavioral health providers, developmental care providers, educators, child care providers, law enforcement, medical, educational, and court professionals that are contributing to positive social change. Trainings will be modified based on community need and will be available to support a networking environment for child welfare and family service professionals and to provide opportunities to collaborate on projects to benefit the community and ultimately a greater number of families. VOICES EMPOWERED believes that Emotional Intelligence (EQ) and Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) is essential to leadership and learning and therefore incorporates it into all training deliveries.

Training for Professionals

Features:

Serves as a hub that allows those in the child and family service organizations to connect, collaborate and establish a united force to assist children and families. Serves as a source for organizations to gain support and knowledge for their non-profits. Policy recommendations are based on thorough research into best practices.

Benefits:

When organizations work together on a common goal, more can be accomplished and positive impact outcomes are more likely. Researchers Donna J. Wood and Barbara Gray state that "Collaboration occurs when a group of autonomous stakeholders of a problem domain (i.e. child development and health) engage in an interactive process, using shared rules, norms, and structures, to act or decide on issues related to that domain" (1991). Forming a collaborative alliance involves fusing an organization's self interests with collective interests, while still preserving some independent goals. Mark Elliot, PhD. stated collaborative theory "enables a shift from social to cultural negotiation, shattering the traditional glass ceiling of collaborative participation from approximately 25 members maximum, towards hundreds of thousands and beyond" (2007). Hence, collaboration removes boundaries and social barriers to participation of like organizations and it streamlines the creative process through providing a single goal to an infinite number of participants.
