Event Details
Event Details
In both our personal and professional lives we will be faced with unexpected incidences where we are called upon to support those affected. Across Australia & New Zealand this can be a common occurrence in community housing where we are regularly faced with natural disasters in our communities such as bushfires, floods, cyclones and earthquakes.
This workshop is all about providing you with the tools to help you develop the confidence and skills to effectively respond to clients in crisis, and it explores the ways that you can support resilience in others through the 3C model of Care, Compassion, and Connection.
