This brief training resource is designed to disseminate vital information about the reasonable and prudent parent standard to everyone affected by the changes in the law.

Two resources are provided: one for supervisors and managers, the other for child welfare workers. The child welfare worker resource is designed to be conducted by a trainer, or by a supervisor or facilitator. Both are designed to last about one hour, so that they may be provided during a regular meeting, such as a unit meeting.
