Workshop Session 1 (Morning): Facilitated by Tricia Williams

In working with children, families, and young people, your ‘Why’ reflects your values, the values held both personally and professionally. It answers the question of why you do what you do. When connected, it brings to life your commitment and contribution to support change and guides all aspects of work with children, young people and families.

During this session, you will have the opportunity to reflect on and articulate your ‘Why’ – your contribution and commitment with a focus on what you want to achieve through your work. Unpack the values and ethics that are foundation to working with purpose!
