Therapeutic Crisis Intervention

What kind of help and how it is given make a crucial difference between the child's learning from the experience or being setback? The Therapeutic Crisis Intervention training program for child and youth care staff presents a crisis prevention and  intervention model designed to teach staff how to help children learn constructive ways to handle crisis.

Actions Speak Louder Than Words! By their example, child and youth care staff shape the behavior and influence the growth of the young people in their care. At no time is this issue more important than during periods of crisis and upset. The skills, knowledge, and professional judgment of staff in reacting to crises are critical factors in helping young people learn constructive and adaptive ways to deal with frustration, failure, anger, rejection, hurt, and depression. The ability of the entire organization to respond effectively to staff and young people in crisis situations is also critical in establishing not only a safe environment, but one that promotes growth and development.
