Creating a Narrative-Based Practice Culture across a Youth Serving Agency: The Phoenix Youth Program's Story
Little, Alison; Hartman, Lesley; Ungar, Michael
Residential Treatment for Children & Youth, v25 n4 p319-332 2008
This article details a series of seven workshops held to stimulate conversations about narrative therapy and its application to work with youth in non-clinical residential and community settings. These workshops were facilitated by clinical social workers and a psychologist for a team of program managers with whom they worked in a multi-service organization for homeless youth. In this article, we report on the content of each workshop and the discussions generated regarding the ways narrative practice approaches to intervention can be adapted to a non-clinical community setting. Our goal has been to understand how non-clinical staff can integrate these concepts to create intentional practice organization-wide that promotes alternative stories for youth.
