The Wayne State University School of Social Work Office of Continuing Education invites child welfare workers, family preservation workers, foster care workers and adoption services to attend one of our specialized child welfare trainings. We are excited to host Jeffrey Williams, LMSW, LCSW for the training titled, “Revive and Thrive: Essential Self-Care Strategies to Prevent Burnout in Child Welfare.”

This one-hour webinar helps child welfare professionals understand the connection between chronic stress, compassion fatigue, and burnout. Participants will explore common workplace stressors and learn effective stress management techniques tailored to the demands of child welfare work. Through guided discussion and reflective practice, this session provides tools for identifying early warning signs of burnout and building resilience through mindfulness, boundary-setting, and self-compassion.
