SUMMARY:Balancing Acts: Navigating Suffering with Self-Compassion
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the first of a four-part webinar series where we delve into a vital yet often overlooked aspect of child welfare work: the wellbeing of the professionals behind the scenes. Every day\, dedicated child welfare attorneys and other professionals navigate through the profound suffering within families they serve\, yet their own emotional toll is frequently disregarded. In this discussion\, we explore the inherent suffering experienced by child welfare attorneys and other professionals and highlight practical strategies rooted in compassion science. Discover how we can cultivate openness and responsiveness to the suffering of others while also nurturing our own wellbeing. \nPresenters\nSheri Freemont\, JD – Managing Director\, Judicial and National Engagement\, Casey Family Programs \nSheri Freemont\, JD\, proudly serves on the Board of Directors for the National Association of Counsel for Children.
