November Learning Series: Understanding Self-Care

November is National Family Caregivers Month, which is a time to recognize and honor family caregivers across the country. Self-care is important for any caregiver who works with vulnerable children and/or adults, as well as for parents and even youth 14+. It’s especially important now, with many people experiencing burnout due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Series Objectives:
• Learn what self-care is and is not
• Understand the need for and ethics of self-care at an individual and organizational level
• Explore the various domains of self-care
• Discuss the components of a self-care safety plan

The Seven Domains of Wellness is a program developed by Dr. Nadine Burke Harris and the Center for Youth Wellness (CYW). This organization is working to establish standard treatment protocols to improve the health of children and adolescents exposed to Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), recognizing that there are many ways to reduce the negative impacts of stress, including COVID-19-related pressures.
