Quality4Children (Q4C) capacitates local organizations, government agencies, and other partners to strengthen the quality of their services and promote relational and reflective child and youth care practice in their local context.
To address the diverse needs of parents, caregivers, child and youth care practitioners, and their supervisors in community services, foster care systems, and residential care settings, we offer the following services:
- Modular and scalable training programmes for child and youth care practitioners and other relevant stakeholders. These programmes focus on providing relational, trauma-informed, and rights-based care for children and youth.
- Customized consultancy services for organizations aiming to enhance their operations and implement quality standards in child and youth care.
- Opportunities for practitioners and other professionals working in the field of child and youth care to exchange ideas and practices.
Our approach to relational child and youth care emphasizes the importance of the caregiver and other CYC practitioners as being present in the moment with children and young people, experiencing their lives and living with them as they unfold.
Our training programmes are adaptable across cultural and legal contexts, which makes them suitable for NGOs and other social service providers worldwide. The quality standard frameworks we use include the UN Guidelines on the Alternative Care of Children, the Quality for Children Standards, and the FICE quality standards.
If you or your organization is interested in one of our training programmes, the comprehensive L&D for CYC practitioners approach, or just a single workshop, please get in touch with us. We want to meet with you, understand your context and needs, and prepare a tailor-made offer for you. Quality4Children stands for equitable access to professional learning.
