BREAKING NEWS
Therapeutic Welfare Interventions will be closing on June 30, 2022. The Director, Dr Boswell is retiring. Dr Bath is continuing to provide training in The
Three Pillars of Transforming Care and can be reached at Howard.Bath@allambiecare.org.au.
It has been a privilege to work with the many
individuals, programs, organisations
and government departments who have shared our vision of creating environments
to positively change the outcomes for those accessing child and family support
services in Australia and overseas.
I have been very fortunate to have been able to share my
professional life with my colleagues: Vicki Brown who kept the organization organized
and me on track; Howard, of course, who kept me thinking and striving to always
do better and to develop better applications for knowledge and skills; Jenny
Howell who pushed me to develop new perspectives and skills to work with young
people with problematic sexual behaviours; and Sharon
Atkins for contributing to our trauma training and being a sounding board as I
struggled to always be accountable in my opinions. And heartfelt thanks to my
son Will for designing, developing and managing my
website. Always available, sensitive to
my needs and responsive. A great sense of security!

Hours. This book is written to

multiple chronic and ongoing adverse life events. It provides a framework for understanding traumagenic needs and practical skills for intervening to
meet those needs and provide better outcomes for children

either read alone or in conjunction with attending the Three Pillars of Transforming Care: Essentials for working with
traumatised children and young people in the Other 23 Hours course.

Newly updated: Three Pillars of
Transforming Care: Essentials for working with traumatised children and young
people in the Other 23 Hours course.
This
training course was developed by Dr Howard Bath and Dr Diana Boswell to provide
a practice framework for trauma informed care. It has been widely implemented
by out-of-home care providers in Queensland, South Australia, New South Wales,
Western Australia and the Northern Territory since 2008. The program was
recently adopted by the international organisation Save The Children as
their core training for Swedish programs working with refugee unaccompanied
minors. The practice framework has been adopted by Norwegian government
agencies supporting children and families.
The Three Pillars course has
been delivered in programs across the USA and in New Zealand. The train-the-trainer program was provided
for a consortium of out-of-home care providers in Alberta, Canada in 2018.
In 2019
the course was introduced to child and family support services in Ireland.
Howard
has been invited to present key note addresses on the
3 Pillars Framework across Scandinavia, Europe, UK, USA and Australia and NZ.
