CONFERENCE REGISTRATION INTEREST SURVEY

EXTRACURRICULAR

CONSIDERATIONS

This  year’s theme social work resilient in times of change is twofold. First we want to elevate professionals working directly with our children and youth as the superstars that they are. This is broader than just the CYFD worker. It is everyone working in the community which we have not built correctly around our youth and mamas. This profession is regarded as invaluable but compensated as disposable.

We hope that the  conference offers more resources, learning, and support we know is lacking in order for them be successful. It is time to change script on how we talk about those that are working with our  children and youth, and how we talk about our children. 


Second, is to bring to attention some of the historical and institutional  discrimination that exists within caregiving professions, familial roles  and responsibilities, who occupies them, and how our systems continue  to oppress them. This profession is mostly occupied by female identifying people and we are still held hostage to oppression and misogynist policies and values. The advocacy, the work, and the conditions are exhausting, even for the warriors. In order for true change to occur and be sustained we  all have to acknowledge our responsibility and positively lend to systematic change instead of breaking each other down. The blame and  shame does nothing to improve outcomes. It essentially works against the  goals to 1. Increase workforce ; 2. to improve quality and 3. to truly  heal the community for the purpose of a better opportunity for our youth  and children. 

Understanding Structural and Social Determinants of Health (SSDH) is integral to social work. Just as we address the  intersectionality of a person, we must address the intersectionality of  the practitioner. 

So  please come with open hearts and open minds, be kind to each other with  your words and actions, most of all enjoy the conference.
