This ChildHub course aims to help adult support workers understand the key behaviours, attitudes, skills and actions that they need to consider when working with children and young people.

This basic awareness-raising course is for anyone who may come into contact with children and young people in alternative care settings. The aim of the course is to provide a brief understanding of trauma, the impact it can have on the lives of children and young people, and ways to support those who may be affected by it.

The COVID-19 Family Life Study is a research study that explores the effects of the coronavirus pandemic on family life across cultures. The Covid Family Study survey invites parents to share their experiences to help provide support in the future.

Developed by Family for Every Child's Disability Working Group, the toolkit aims to strengthen the capacity of CSOs, social workers, service providers, government institutions and Members of the Family Alliance to include children with disabilities and their families in their advocacy, service delivery or other work. During the workshop, Disability Working Group members will share more on the purpose and vision of the toolkit, and demonstrate how to use it. 

This panel will discuss coronavirus-associated caregiver loss and the work being done by the international community, the U.S. government, and faith-based actors to support vulnerable children and turn the tide toward better care. It will be moderated by Gillian Huebner, executive director of the Georgetown University Collaborative on Global Children’s Issues.

The webinar will share findings detailed in a policy brief that features an increased focus on the well-being and working conditions of caregivers in the informal economy. The brief highlights the need to consider sustainable policy and protection responses instead of quick, short-term measures for more disability inclusive, gender-transformative, and equitable solutions.
