Applying ‘The Three Houses’ tool to child and Family assessments and Trauma Recovery

Developed in New Zealand, the Three Houses tool has had international success and is used worldwide.

Designed to help bring the voice of children and young people into child protection and social service work, the Three Houses tool is an effective way to contribute to child- centred work.

This experiential one day workshop offers an interactive opportunity to learn about the tool and how it contributes to child and family assessments, and about the ‘Sphere Model’ designed to support trauma recovery.

Learning Outcomes:

  • Gain understanding of the Three Houses tool including key thinking, theory, and ideas that support the Three Houses tool;
  • Develop understanding to apply the Three Houses tool in practice;
  • Explore and assess the impacts of relational trauma by applying the Sphere Model, and
  • Develop interventions to support well-being and trauma recovery by applying the Sphere Model.

Acknowledgement

LEAD acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land we gather and work on, and the land that you are on while visiting our website. We pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging, for they hold the memories, the traditions, the cultures and hopes of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples across the nation. A better understanding and respect for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures develops an enriched appreciation for Australia’s cultural heritage and can lead to reconciliation. This is essential to the maturity of Australia as a nation and fundamental to the development of an Australian identity. Understanding and respect are guiding principles of LEAD’s Reconciliation Action Plan.
