POSTPONED: Parent Survey for Community Outreach (PSCO) for SUPERVISORS ONLY: April 10, 2020

Please Note: Due to the coronavirus outbreak, this training has been postponed. We will reschedule the training as soon as possible, but are holding off on setting dates until we know more about the course of the outbreak. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Laura Shoaf (lshoaf@familiesforwardva.org) or Alison Markow (amarkow@earlyimpactva.org). Healthy Families of Virginia in partnership with Families Forward Virginia present Parent Survey for Community Outreach (PSCO) formerly known as FRS Core. Developed by Great Kids, Inc., PSCO/FRS Core training is designed for those who will fill the role of Family Resource Specialist/Family Assessment Worker and their supervisors. Trainees learn how to incorporate a strength-based, relationship-focused assessment process into their work using the Kempe Family Stress Checklist (Parent Survey). The focus is on promoting the assessment process as a unique service rather than as simply an eligibility tool. Each person has the opportunity to practice a parent survey and will be asked to send two completed parent surveys to the trainer for review following training. Supervisors are required to attend and register for an extra day of training on April 10, 2020 in addition to April 6-9, 2020. Training will take place from 8:30am-4:30pm at the Families Forward Virginia office located at 8100 Three Chopt Rd., Suite 212, Richmond, VA 23229. The trainer facilitating the course is Laura Shoaf. Cost for this extra training day is $50 for supervisors. A training manual is included in the registration cost and is required to purchase. Snacks and drinks are complimentary while lunch is not provided. All hotel costs, travel arrangements, and meals are the responsibility of the local site. The registration and cancellation deadline is March 23, 2020. Invoices are available upon request. Unless there is an emergency, full refunds will only be issued with a cancellation of 14 days in advance of the training date. Please see supplemental materials for more detailed instructions about registration and nearby hotel information. Questions regarding registration?
