Community Service Learning

Child and youth care practitioners need to understand how their roles interact with child serving agencies in the community. Students professionally collaborate to manage group dynamics including problem solving, time management and conflict resolution. Students identify needs to advocate on behalf of an agency that serves children, youth and families. Through weekly team meetings, independent research, reflection, role play, and community advocacy, students plan and implement an event to meet a need of a community agency.
