Summary
This micro-training can count toward BFIS professional development credit.
Description
Joy, pain, struggle, fear - empathy is about companioning someone in their experience, as-is, without trying to make it better, go away, or change it. And that takes practice. In this cornerstone workshop about social and emotional development, you will be asked to experience empathy, explore what defines it, and learn how to create an empathy-infused space for the young people you work with.
Discover:
• what it means to have empathy
• what empathy is not
• how to create an empathy-filled space
