LEARN HOW TO SUPPORT YOUR STAFF USING REFLECTIVE SUPERVISION
REQUIREMENTS: This learning collaborative is designed for professionals who supervise infant/early childhood professionals that provide direct or indirect services, are ready to implement reflective supervision within their programs, and are ready to pursue endorsement upon completion of the experience.
While previous experience providing reflective supervision is not a requirement for participation, it is helpful to have some basic knowledge and understanding of the subject.
In lieu of a master's degree, you may list training, experience and personal or professional insights that have led to your interest in participating in the learning collaborative.

FACILITATING ATTUNED INTERACTIONS TRAINING
The FAN (Facilitating Attuned Interactions) Approach serves as a framework for parent engagement and reflective practice in work with young children and families. FAN addresses urgent concerns of the parent or caregiver and trains practitioners to tailor their responses to match the needs of the moment. FAN also helps practitioners recognize how their own internal sense of regulation or dysregulation affects their abilities to be fully present with a family in the moment.
This training offers strategies to help practitioners feel balanced in activating or high risk situations. FAN provides an approach to reflective practice that can be utilized by staff and supervisors using the ARC of Engagement to structure staff/supervision and promote collaboration throughout.
SCIMHA encourages staff or team participation in FAN Training in order to maximize the impact within your organization or agency. Priority will be given to teams committed to integrating the FAN Approach into its work.

February 11, 13, 18 and 20, 2025 from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM
