Extended Family for Kids Leader Training is Changing Lives

At Extended Family, our goal is to reach every child impacted by the
incarceration of a loved one. We fulfill this goal by partnering with
hosts to provide Extended Family for Kids (EFK) Leader training to
caring adults who are committed to helping children develop coping
skills for anger, stress, and negative behaviors. These leaders become
trusted guides for youth navigating the emotional and social effects of
having an incarcerated loved one. Training other caring adults to use
the EFK Curriculum helps us reach every child who needs us, regardless
of where they live.

As part of our training evaluation, each new EFK Program Leader is
asked: _“What was one thing that stood out for you in this
workshop?”_ Our responses from our latest training were overwhelmingly
positive:

_“The overall program stands out to me. I look forward to utilizing
this program with the kids I work with.”_

_“The techniques used were simple everyday things that are easily
communicated.”_

_“Real stories, real experiences, real outcomes.”_

_“Honestly, I learned so much! From the statistics, resources, and
this fantastic curriculum.”_

These newest Program Leaders are excited about taking EFK to the
children in their communities, and their enthusiasm was reflected in
their comments:

_“This was a very interactive training that allowed for true
understanding on how the curriculum can be utilized.”_

_“I think this program is great! I’ve laughed and learned so much.
Best workshop I’ve ever been to!”_

_“This was so enjoyable, entertaining, and interesting. One of the
best trainings I’ve been to!”_
