How We Come Alongside Families (feat. Kathleen Cowie & Caitlin Simpson)
Manage episode 448788496 series 3577352
We are passionate about not only transforming the foster care system in and around Houston but about helping others find their place along The River. This means providing key trainings, rallying community members together, and bringing awareness to how we can all be better equipped to make Houston a place where families heal and children thrive.
For this episode, we have two of our staff members, Kathleen Cowie and Caitlin Simpson, joining us.
Kathleen is the Director of Agency Partnerships at The Riverside Project and previously served as a research assistant focusing on child welfare, a direct care provider at an emergency shelter for children and youth in foster care, and a Therapeutic Case Manager for the homeless population.
Caitlin is the Director of Community Resources at The Riverside Project and previously served with international nonprofits in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia addressing humanitarian aid, poverty, and human trafficking.
In this episode, they share more about what they do behind the scenes, lessons they have learned as social workers, the inner workings of the Response Network, who can benefit from Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI®) trainings, and more.
