Advocacy and Community Trainings
Our Training Department hosts a variety of trainings each month to further advance skills and information available to peer advocates and the community at large. Some of our trainings are specific to the Family & Youth Peer Support workforce, while our Open trainings are available to anyone interested in attending (i.e community member, case manager, etc.). Through our partnership with the Department of Health & Mental Hygiene (DOHMH), our Advisors, who specialize in family and community services, provide an additional layer of support to FYPS Advocates through technical assistance in order to assist them in better supporting youth and families.
Moreover, SFC Advisors come with their own lived experiences that allow them to influence their efforts in enhancing the peer and social service workforce through first-hand experience in systems ranging from mental health to education.
