What does it take to get this going, and keep it going?

  1. An enthusiastic, energetic, indefatigable champion who believes that there is a problem, and that their can be a solution.  Someone like you.
  2. Leadership in the organization and in the management of the various clinical departments who see that services for children can be better, and that it's in their best interest to improve them.  (this is nice, but not essential)
  3. Child-like staff who are good with kids, or staff who'd like to be.  Find those who are interested in learning and applying these techniques, and in championing this approach in their department.  
  4. Download the Materials:  the PowerPoint for selling the concept to Leaders, the PowerPoint for the Workshop, and familiarize yourself with the materials
  5. Print up a bunch of the Children's Team ID's for distribution at the end of the class.  
  6. If you so choose, download and print the Children's Team Playbook for distribution to the class participants for future reference.
  7. Schedule a workshop.  You need a room for 2 hours, a computer, a projector, some large stuffed animals to demonstrate holds, and of course staff who are interested in learning and applying these skills.  
  8. The time, effort, and faith that this is important, and that you are making a difference.
