Training Description
This 1.5-hour webinar reviews what our field has learned about trauma, adversity, risk, and the Good Lives Model in recent years. It will explore what we can learn about the adhering to the principles of risk, need, and responsivity by examining the underlying narratives of people’s lives. As Tony Ward and others have observed in recent years, our understanding of “factors” often does not adequately account for the processes that drive these factors.
