SUMMARY:Building Your Toolbox for Caregivers: Beginning the Transition from Manager to Consultant
DESCRIPTION:As young adults are transitioning into employment\, caregivers are transitioning from the role of Manager to one of Consultant for their young adults. This transition can be challenging for all parties\, and can create tension and feelings of stress and anxiety.  \n\n\n\nIn this strengths-based workshop\, we will discuss strategies and tools that can help make space for shared learning and growth within the family and natural support network during this transition.  \n\n\n\nPlease note: caregivers do not need to be parents in order to attend this workshop. Caregivers can be supportive roommates\, natural supports\, or family members. \n\n\n\nParticipants will gain the knowledge and skills to: \n\n\n\n\nDefine the transition to independence for their young adult\, and the transition from manager to consultant for themselves\n\n\n\nReflect on their own needs and expectations for the process so that they may better support themselves and their young adult\n\n\n\nUse strengths-based tools and strategies to create a strong starting point for conversations about employment\n\n\n\nIdentify resources in the community that support caregivers and young adults through this transition\n\n\n\n\nWednesday\, February 116:00 – 7:30 p.m.In-person at The Ability Hub (300\, 3820 24 Avenue NW) \n\n\n\nThis workshop compliments The Sinneave Family Foundation’s Family Work Readiness Toolkit (FWRT)\, a practical\, strengths-based resource designed to support caregivers in helping youth explore their interests\, skills\, values\, and preferred work environments. In this workshop\, we will be focusing on the Embrace Independence module of the toolkit. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n** Space in this session is limited\, and advance registration is required through Sinneave Connects.

You will also learn how to recognize your own needs and expectations of this process so that you may be able to support yourself through this transition. \n\n\n\nIn this in-person session\, you will learn how to: \n\n\n\n\nTransition from the role of\, “Manager\,” to the role of\, “Consultant”\,\n\n\n\nFind a balance of support for yourself and your young adult through their transition to independence and\,\n\n\n\nBuild a shared confidence between yourself and your young adult in your new roles.\n\n\n\n\nWednesday\, December 3\, 20256:00 – 7:30 p.m.In-person at The Ability Hub (300\, 3820 24 Avenue NW) \n\n\n\nThis series introduces you to The Sinneave Family Foundation’s Family Work Readiness Toolkit (FWRT)\, a practical\, strengths-based resource designed to help youth explore their interests\, skills\, values\, and preferred work environments.
