HOPE and Strengthening Families-Informed coaching guide

HOPE and Strengthening Families guide for supervisors

This guide is designed to help supervisors coach staff toward more consistent use of the HOPE and Strengthening Families frameworks that actively seeks out opportunities to promote access to positive childhood experiences (PCEs) and protective factors with children, youth, and families.

The worksheet should be used as a part of regular supervision sessions. The worksheet can stand alone, or its content can be incorporated within existing agency supervision tools. It can be used to guide discussion with caseworkers about specific families on their caseload and also provides ideas around focusing on protective factors and positive experiences to reach case plan goals.

This resource was created in partnership with CSSP and the National Association of County and City Health Officials.
